[Bug 496937] Re: Jaunty: kacpid running at 70% of CPU Time on Pentium 4
I don't know what happened, but (after update?) things are -currently- looking a lot better. My asus still overheats from time to time (typical for asus apperently) and then kacpid kicks in, but now, instead of staying up there hogging my cpu, it falls back into the small cpu-usage category.

Re: [Bug 496937] Re: Jaunty: kacpid running at 70% of CPU Time on Pentium 4
sorry to hear kacpid is still giving you trouble. My case went away after I installed a high end sound card. Not sure why but it did. Some of the comments I got from the guru's at Ubuntu, was to try liveCD of the last version of Ubuntu. It did not help in my case. Have you tried modifing the kernel parameters related to ACPI at boot time? I tried the following ones with results indicacted: ACPI=OFF solves the problem of CPU Time (of course as theirs no ACPI running). ACPI=HT works as well, though I loose dual processor feature. -Nate On Wed, Jun 23, 2010 at 5:12 AM, bernard bernard.patte...@telenet.bewrote: CRAP !!! ...pwernowd - didn't work :( -- Jaunty: kacpid running at 70% of CPU Time on Pentium 4 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/496937 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug.

Re: [Bug 496937] Re: Jaunty: kacpid running at 70% of CPU Time on Pentium 4
Have you recently installed any new hardware on the laptop? Maybe changed the BIOS settings? The reason I ask, is the issue I was having went away when I installed some new hardware (sound card, in my case). Can't explain it, but it did. Also, in my case kacpid was only going up high for one of 2 CPU's. On Thu, Jun 17, 2010 at 3:56 AM, bernard bernard.patte...@telenet.bewrote: Hello, I'm also having these problems on and off.

Hi -- Just got done creating and booting from a liveCD of Karmic (9.10 release), and unfortunately the problem is still present. Below is key data showing the successful boot of Karmic and that kacpid was consuming 65% of CPU0 Time still.

Also, are you able to test this in Karmic? You should be able to reproduce this from a LiveCD.

[Bug 496937] Re: Jaunty: kacpid running at 70% of CPU Time on Pentium 4
Hi - Thanks so much for getting back to me on this. Attached is the tar file of the ACPI directory as requested. I'll work on getting a liveCD of 9.10 going. It will be another day before I get it done. Also, I checked my update logs, and I did not see any updates to ACPI. Maybe I did not look in the correct place or use the right method. But I am sure I did not have this problem a few weeks ago. But when I try older Kernels, the problem still exists. Which I believe this aligns with the issue being something in the ACPI software, since this ACPI is independent of the kernel (I think?). thanks again... -Nate ** Attachment added: tar file of acpi directory http://launchpadlibrarian.net/36839506/acpi.tar.bz -- Jaunty: kacpid running at 70% of CPU Time on Pentium 4 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/496937 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for attaching that, we'll let a kernel developer decide what's going on - ACPI is a standard for power management, and is in the domain of the kernel as it uses modules that implement power management. I'll mark this bug as Triaged so a developer can have a look, but please do let us know if this works with a Karmic LiveCD, or even a Lucid development LiveCD, as the developer may request that you try that.
