["Christopher M. Penalver" <christopher.m.penalver@xxxxxxxxx>]

Michael DePaulo, 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

If reproducible, could you also 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-rc7

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.

Title:
  [Acer Aspire 1410 (2009 netbook)] Battery Life Significantly less than
  in Windows (and worse in Lucid than in 9.10)

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: acpid

  My system is an Acer Aspire 1410 (2009 11.6" netbook, not the full
  sized laptop released in 2005) with a Core 2 Solo @ 1.4 ghz.

  Under Windows Vista or Windows 7, the battery life is roughly 6 hours
  when idling with screen at moderate bringness and wi-fi on.

  Under Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit, it is about 4 to 4.5 hours. Same conditions.

  Under Lucid (April 13th) 64-bit, it is about 3 to 3.5 hours. Same
  conditions. (Bug reported from this.)

  I have checked and made sure no process is using up any more than 1%
  CPU in the background with gnome-system-monitor.
