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.

[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
