Now that the problem causing the power regression has been identified, will the power regression issue be addressed in the Mint Distro? Like the LTS version (Mint 9) or other?

Re: Will the power regression problem be resolved?
A permanent solution to the problem will have to be from way upstream in the form of a kernel patch. This is not something the Mint team can control.
If you need relief now, a workaround has been published:

You can try it but there are , as always in Linux, no guarantees.

Okay.
Well I tried to upgrade the kernel to 2.39.2 with kernelcheck but it won't boot, so I can't try the fix. I'll just stick with the 2.32 version for now.
