I'm also a new FHD M10 owner and am really excited to have one.. I'm using 
it now to type this up...on screen keyboard is working well.. My biggest 
issue so far was high CPU load with kworker...around 26% or so.. Syslog was 
getting flooded with errors so I ran a CPU backtrack and pinpointed the 
camera sensor.. Thought that was strange until I realized it is being used 
to adjust screen brightness!. If your seeing unusually high CPU load at 
idle...try disabling “adjust brightness automatically”.  That made a big 
difference for me.

The next syslog issue I'm seeing is CPU freq scalling....anyone have any 
ideas?
