From the 2006 errata page : "If you have an ACPI-enabled system on which both acpid and X.org are running, you may experience high CPU usage in the release version of Mandriva Linux 2006. This problem is triggered when the logrotate tool is called to compress and rotate the system logs, so it will happen at 4 a.m. if your system is on and cron or anacron is enabled, or at the first boot after 4 a.m. if anacron is enabled and your system was off at 4 a.m. If you experience the problem, you must restart either X.org or the system in order to stop the high CPU usage. This problem will be fixed as soon as possible by an official update. As a workaround, you can turn off the acpid service, or stop logrotate from rotating the acpid log file by removing the file /etc/logrotate.d/acpid .
