[retrying with fixed subject line]
Howdy,
I just downloaded and built 2.1, and a couple of things aren't right:
1) header columns aren't aligned with the data
2) power estimate shown in the kW range :)
I re-ran the new powertop later, and even when it's not way way off, I
still get weird data like this:
21.3 W 86.7% Device Display backlight
I don't think my display uses 21W :) (it's about 6W when it's burning as
high as it can).
See screenshot of 2.1 vs 1.98:
Is there other info I can provide?
Thanks,
Marc

Hi,
thanks for reporting. frankly, those are not critical ones. however, we're about
to rework UI rendering, so may be it will be corrected by the way.

well, the second one, perhaps, need a look.
