** Description changed:

  This bug is present on Inspiron 6400 cpu intel core duo T2500, Ubuntu
  6.10, kernel 2.6.17.1-10.34 generic.
  
  When I leave my dell laptop without moving the mouse nor typing on the
  keyboard for more than 5 minutes, the cpu usage of the 2nd core goes to
  100% and it remains locked at 100% unltil I move the mouse again (or
  press a key).
  
  This bug seems to be appeared after last week kernel update on my Ubuntu 6.10 
(current kernel version: linux-image-2.6.17-10-generic 2.6.17.1-10.34):
  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=318005
  
  Actually I've tested the following, but none of them changed the bug
  behaviour, still 100% load on 2nd core after 5' of inactivity:
  
  - Disabling the fan regulator daemon "dellfand"
  - Disabling acpi services from "adnimistration->services" menu
  - Disabling powernowd service from "adnimistration->services" menu
  
  Then i've tried this way:
  
  - Compiling a custom kernel version 2.6.19 from sources with the same
  setting of ubuntu's default.
  
  ..and the bug changed so that after 5' of inactivity the 1st core (and
- not anymore the 2nd core) goes 100% of load, this does not resolve the
- situation.
+ not anymore the 2nd core) goes 100% of load, this doesn't resolve the
+ problem but maybe confirms it is something kernel-related.
  
  Please tell me if there is a useful log i can attach to this bug
  request.
  
  This bug is very critical for me because i'm not allowed to leave the
- laptop for more than 5' unless i risk. cpu overheating.
