Hi

I only recently started using kernel 2.4, and only this morning bothered
to find out what is this strange "kapm-idled" process that takes so much
of my CPU time. Finding this was a mere google search for "kapm-idled",
but anyway, I thought that this should appear in the FAQ:

http://www.iglu.org.il/faq/cache/172.html

Is that correct? Any comments?

Specifically: it is a bug of a process manager to report kapm-idled's CPU
time as the time in which the CPU is busy. The two I use are qps (1.9.7)
and top (of procps 2.0.7 from Mandrake 8.1), and both of them have
reported the time used by kapm-ideld as busy time.
