Subject: kapm-idled shows 90+% cpu usage when idle
Date: Thu, 9 Aug 2001 19:33:42 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20010809233425Z270606-28344+3498@vger.kernel.org> (raw)

Is this a true usage reading or just some quirk that's supposed to happen?   
I really doubt that this kernel daemon should really be using  cpu.  It seems 
to respond with a higher cpu usage when i'm idle.  It immediately goes away 
when something else uses cpu.   If you need any more info just ask.   I'm 
 
I'm using 2.4.8-pre7  
00:00.0 Host bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8371 [KX133] (rev 02)
00:01.0 PCI bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8371 [KX133 AGP] 
00:07.0 ISA bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT82C686 [Apollo Super South] (rev 
22)

00:07.4 Host bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT82C686 [Apollo Super ACPI] (rev 
30)

I didn't see acpi in my motherboard manual at the time of configuring the 
kernel, should i be using the acpi idle daemon instead of the supposedly 
supported APM idle daemon?
