Bug Description

I use Oneiric x86_64 on Lenovo X220i latop with Sandy Bridge processor (ntel(R) Core(TM) i3-2310M CPU @ 2.10GH). When powertop is run (under sudo) it reports certain numbers but it's obvious that these numbers are wrong. E.g.:

Summary: 0,0 wakeups/second, 0,0 GPU ops/second and 0,0 VFS ops/sec

Frequency stats are all zeroes:
2,10 Ghz 0,0% | 2,10 Ghz 0,0% | 2,10 Ghz 0,0% 0,0%

Powertop version reported is 1.97 (I suppose it's some kind of beta)
