I am having the same problem, however different hardware. Ubuntu 10.10 clean install, Thinkpad R51, Intel 855GM graphics. The whole system appears to stop for ~0.5 second every 10 seconds, and top shows kslowd001 jump straight to the top of the list, just like teachop.
Disabling KMS for my chipset, using the kernel line "i915.modeset=0" fixes this problem. Lucid didn't run at all on this laptop, suffered from the 8xx graphics woes. -- Mouse, UI, stops every 10 seconds https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/630299 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
