| |
Subject says it all. On my laptop which is running 2.4.0, while the machine is completely idle "top" reports kapm-idled as usin about 45% of the CPU. The remaining 55% is reported as idle time.
When the machine gets a little more active, the CPU time attributed to kapm-idled decreases while the 55% idle time increases to 85%!
This is not caused be "top": I get the same 45% from "ps -l 3".
I remember when kapmd was reporting 100%. Is the new behaviour intentional, and is it saving the maximum power on the laptop?
thanks, -- Jamie
