New question #45023 on Ubuntu Eee: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu-eee/+question/45023
I've been tweaking my Eee 901 to try and reduce power consumption, and since I'm always on a wireless network, I thought it may be a good idea to disable the wired network in the BIOS - it probably won't save much power, but every little helps! Anyway, immediately after doing this I noticed the system was very slow - turns out that "dd" is consuming huge amounts of CPU - when I kill this, "klogd" goes beserk too. Killing that seems to calm things down. Does anybody have an idea what it's doing? Any safe way of doing this? Or should I give up, on the basis that the network adaptor probably consumes next-to-nothing when it's not connected anyway? -- You received this question notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Eee Coders, which is an answer contact for Ubuntu Eee. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-eee-coders Post to : ubuntu-eee-coders@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-eee-coders More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
