Hello,

IMO its useful on any Linux that supports CONFIG_TIMER_STATS
(amd64 and i386 was tested by me). Main functionality of powertop
is based on this. Even is no ACPI is available it still can find which
processes wakes-up too often.

If ACPI is available powertop can show C-state residency (this works
for me only on i366 and does not work on amd64), P-states residency
and battery condition.

Ps: linux-any seems not to exist in cdbs. Works for xawtv package.
For example radio and v4l-conf is build only for linux-any.

Regards,
