System specifications of the affected laptop.
from the gkrellm FAQ: Linux Kernel 2.4.x: heavy CPU usage The kapm-idled process records heavy CPU usage when the system should otherwise be quiet. Recompile your kernel with kapm-idled disabled to get rid of this annoyance. I assume that acpi does something similar. yep, but if you want a cooler cpu.. idles are nice. you can make gkrellm only report user process loads also.. helps. not a kernel bug though. db issue |
