Bug Description
When I run powertop on my Thinkpad X61s, it suggests me a couple of things I expected ubuntu to do on it's own.
e.g.
Suggestion: Enable wireless power saving mode by executing the following command
:
echo 5 > /sys/bus/
Suggestion: Enable USB autosuspend by pressing the U key or adding
usbcore.
Suggestion: Enable SATA ALPM link power management via:
echo min_power > /sys/class/

Some of these power saving improvements may influence the performance or the stability on certain machines, so that are not enabled by default, if you think a certain suggestion would be able to implement an on all systems without a loss of stability and performance, file a new bug considering only this issue and assign it to the specific package which needs to be changed in future.
