so here we go:Īt the grub menu press and navigate to the line with splash (or nosplash) and insert pcie_aspm=force and i915.i915_enable_rc6=1 Just yesterday I guided a mate over in the german section and he was very happy about the solution. (just search my postings) I even told ddaann how to cure it but he didn't hear. But I'm somewhat tired now repeating this over and over like a mantra. It's easy to revert these changes and to carry out a test. These changes came with kernel 2.6.38 and 3.0. If it's a sandy bridge with hd graphics it's dead shure you are affected by the 2 power regressions that were introduced by changing the allowed CPU/GPU/chipset power states due to bug reports.
