Bug Description

I use a Asus eeePC (ubuntu 11.04) and I have very high power consumption.

WORKAROUND: I tired the tip here and now power-consumption is back to normal:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/760131/comments/154

The problem is back when I resume from standby but I think I have just to include this in some wake-up-script:
----------
for F in /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/power/control; do
 echo "auto" > $F
done

Except for your E620 USB Modem, all other usb devices(usb hub, uvc camera)
in your machine have been enabled runtime suspend at default.

So it should be your modem which caused the extra power consumption.

Might be, but the modem is internal. I assume everybody with the same netbook will have the same problem.

Karlheinz Knackwurst, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc3

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding.
