Bug Description
The laptop-mode stuff in ubuntu does kick most (if not all) wifi cards into low power mode when AC plug is pulled off.
For example doing: iwpriv eth1 set_power 7 on my ipw3915 wifi cards gives me like an extra 20, 30 minutes of battery power on my laptop over because it kicks it into battery mode.
Note: the original reporter indicated the bug was in package 'laptop-mode'; however, that package was not published in Baltix.
