*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 30557 *** I also get this bug on my system; Dell Inspiron 6000 (laptop), Intel celeron M CPU, i915 graphics.
As stated in bug #30557 setting max_cstate to 2 would fix this, but it didn't work on my system. However, setting max_cstate to 1 (mentioned above), fixes it. (ie: adding "echo 1 > /sys/module/processor/parameters/max_cstate" in /etc/rc.local). -- CPU usage very high with no running tasks using it https://launchpad.net/bugs/30570 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
