Vincenzo, this would not necessarily be a high prio bug even if it did affect a larger user base. Two suggestions for you:
1) "sudo renice 20 `pidof gnome-volume-control-applet`" Check the result with top. Your CPU should spent much time niced now. 2) change the CPU frequency governor with cpufreq-selector (or an applet). Forcing the CPU to a lower frequency should make sure it doesn't overheat and ;-) 3) buy better hardware that doesn't overheat even under load in summer ;-) -- gnome-volume-control-applet takes up to 40% cpu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/400820 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
