At my PC there is no local.conf file in /etc/modprobe.d/. There are some other files but mostly blacklist*.conf files. I searched my PC with 'locate' but there is no 'local.conf' at all..
I tried to add the file with the same text in it: options drm_kms_helper poll=N and rebooted. But it does not fix the kworker problem for me... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/887793 Title: Kworker constantly taking about 100% CPU To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/887793/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
