The same happens to me - everything fine until I plug an external HD into the laptop - and then the following start to eat CPU cycles:
gvfs-gdu-volume-monitor gdu-notification-daemon If I stop these (it was an act of desperation) then update-notifier starts to eat CPU cycles I am using 11.10 On the machine before clean install of 11.10 - from 10.?? - no problems I also have 11.10 on the USB HD - and when I use this to boot a Lenovo laptop or an HP laptop - again the CPU use rises to close to 100% - with the same processes misbehaving If I plug the same HDD into my 10.04 system then - no problems I am happy to do more digging for information - but it seems few other folks are suffering this problem -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/876671 Title: gvfs-gdu-volume-monitor uses 100% CPU on startup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/876671/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
