i am also seeing this, but i am seeing on a restart of the system. I have tried to disable kacpid by editing the menu.lst file, and that works, however, i then lose one of my CPUs (running a p4 3.0ghz prescott proc with hyperthreading).
further research shows that disabling kacpid is not the answer for obvious reasons. kacpi_notify runs around 50% and kacpid runs around 40% I am running ubuntu 8.10 -- kacpid constantly using 80-95% CPU on pentium D dual core https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/82423 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
