Lowlights: it's broken.
I get millions of messages like:

and everything is very choppy. I assume it's the power saving thing that broke again, but that's just a total random guess, I have nothing to actually back that up with.
It worked fine after boot, but those problems began at 8287.139375 (about two hours after boot - it may have coincided with screen saver, but who knows?) and have been happening constantly since. The machine is not really usable, I'm writing this with annoying 2-second pauses every once in a while.
This is a regular Core i5-670 with up-to-date Fedora-14, fwiw. Not my sandybridge.
