Bug Description
Hello
I have a Lenovo Ideapad 310 with a Intel Core i3-6100U. I have noticed its battery last less time on Xubuntu 16.04 than on Windows 10. I have searched on internet what could cause it, and found with powertop it can't reach states higher than package C state 2, while it could reach package C state 10.
On this particular notebook model, I would expect the battery would last a bit more than 5 hours using only browser, as it happens with Windows 10 and CentOS 7. On Xubuntu, battery lasts slightly more than 4 hours. The best was 4h30min, so I am having at least 30 minutes less battery time, but generally it is one hour.
I have tried to get support on Ubuntu Forums, here is the link of the thread:

As everything we tried had no success, I am making this report.
As a reference, CentOS 7 functioned correctly and the battery lasted the same time than Windows 10, while Fedora 25 has this problem too.
