[Bug] Unknown op {
by Ciprian Tomoiaga
Hi,
When running powertop --configure for the first time, I saw this error on
the output:
Calibrating idle
System is not available
unknown op '{'
System is not available
Calibrating: disk usage
The configuration continued though until completion.
Did I miss anything?

how does powertop estimate the watt of laptop computers?
by haoyu Wang
hi,powertop's developers .I am a student which recently studing power consumption of pc.I have known windows power monitor software Joulemeter. there are some papers introduce how it works . but i can't find the same documents that introduce the powertop.
so i want to know the process of calculating the watts of those components .for example, how to calculate the cpu's power ? i have following questions :
1. does powertop use power model to calculate the power ?
2. does powertop use the utilization of cpu and combine some cpu's power model to calculate power ?
3.how to get those utilization ?use linux kernal function or directly read some data from cpu registers which likes intel power gadget ?
thanks for you reading this email and hope you can reply soon .

powertop hci tools bug report
by Blair Bethwaite
Hi there,
Any particular reason there is no issue tracker for powertop on the
official site or github?
Anyhoo, bug report here from an Ubuntu Wily machine. Powertop is
currently hard-coding the location of hciconfig and friends in
src/tuning/bluetooth.cpp to /usr/sbin/hciconfig. On my platform
hciconfig lives in /bin.
This should probably be discovered via configure. Only other
questionable hard-coding seems to be for xset.
