Just tested on a IronLake machine (found I was wrong after testing), but still
put the powertop result here for compare with SandyBridge:
Acer TravelMate 8572 openSUSE 11.4 2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop i586 kernel
battery discharge brightness lowest level wifi off Desktop 3D
effect enabled
powertop 11.3
after 10 minues: 9.5 W long term: 11.6W
Acer TravelMate 8572 openSUSE 11.4 3.0.4-43.3-desktop i586 kernel
(openSUSE:Tumbleweed)
battery discharge brightness lowest level wifi off Desktop 3D
effect enabled
powertop 11.3
after 10 minutes: 8.4 W long term: 12.2W
Didn't have huge difference between 2.6.37 and 3.0.4 kernel, I am testing a
SandyBridge machine, will attach result.
