This is not a problem with the KDE module, but the with 2.6.20 SMP kernel in Feisty (and a number of prior ones, going back to mid-2006) reporting the CPU load incorrectly. This does not happen for single CPU kernels. I solved it by recompiling my kernel for single CPU. It's been reported that installing the -i386 (as opposed to the -generic) kernel solves this issue as well. If you have a hyperthreaded or dual- core CPU this may not be the best option for you, though. I also noticed that the system with the stock generic kernel did throttle when using the "conservative" governor, but that make the KDE powermanager crash; the .deb package above solved this only partially in that it won't crash anymore, but will switch back to the "ondemand" governor which does not throttle appropriately. -- guidance-power-manager crashes at startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/112120 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
