I've seen some slowdown's also when kapm-idled is enabled in the kernel:
processes would be slower starting
HD access was slower
screen refresh was slower
etc...
Using kernel 2.4.9 on a Dell Latitude CP M233ST.
Once I recompiled without the option, my speed is back.

What is kapm-idled and why is it consuming up to 80% CPU? It's most
malevolent when my computer is doing nothing useful. What's the graceful
way to disable or shut it down (assuming that doing so would not harm my
system)?

Kernel APM IDLE Daemon
It's a pseudo process that doesn't actually _do_ anything. It just puts the
CPU to sl
can anyone explain to me what exactly the process kapm-idled does and why
it takes up 50-90% of cpu usage?
i've never noticed it taking up that much usage until today. i cannot stop
it from top...i suppose it's got something to do with the apm kernel
modules, but i really don'

It consumes that much, because your system is idleing. ;) It's the
kapm *idle* daemon, and the more CPU time this kernel thread gets, the
more your system i

kapm-idled makes HLT calls when the CPU is not used.

Dear List,
strange enough to me, kapm-idled consumes between 23% and 90% of the

Does anyone know any special ways on how to solve this issue?
Kind regards,

OK, I know it's just an idle daemon, but what do I need to adjust in my
Woody setup so it's not included in the system load? I don't need to
disable apm, do I?
Probably a FAQ somewhere, right...?

I'm sorry for the delay...
It's for APM (adv. power management).
But it's okay now, I have installed the 2.4.0 release kernel and there's
no problem on the APM now.

Hi,
Recently I switched the kernel to the 2.4-test10 version, and I then I
have the following:

Why is that...?
