I've a X31 (26721LG) with a Radeon (M6) and experience the same power drain 
problems in the ACPI S3 state. I read a lot about the radeon patch(es), 
changing the DRAM to D2 state, which can be harmful on some hardware. Did 
anybody try this patches successfully on a X31, because I only read reports 
about tests with a T4*.

Thanks,
