I cannot remember, but I might be able to test it later today with my old 
kernel...

However, I tried the test setup where I reached around 8W a couple of weeks 
ago, and suddenly, on an idle console with only 8 wakeups and everything 
unloaded, my x60s takes 9.5W, sometimes 10 or more for no reason. HD spun 
down, backlight dimmed - I just dont get it...
