Bug Description

Machine: ThinkPad X200
OS: Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic) beta 64bit

Powertop shows about 20 wakeups for acpi with tpfand running, and 3-4 wakeups without tpfand.
This is quite a difference the second most wakeups is 5 (see screenshot).

I'm aware that this is probably tpfand polling once every second or so, but would it be possible to further reduce (or offer an option) the wakeups of this otherwise great tool? ;-)
