Title:
  crash on run after apt-get install

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in powertop package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  $ sudo apt-get install powertop
  $ sudo powertop
  <kernel panic follows>

  Hypothesis: something is set on install so that on next reboot the
  kernel is ready to deal with powertop?  In this case, propose either
  powertop checks on start if it can run or else, if that's not
  possible, install emits a warning.

  If the hypothesis is false, I can't add much more to the bug, I'm
  afraid, but to note that it happened.
