Thanks for the feedback. I tried doing what you asked but it did not go away. Besides that command stays in the foreground and does not return control back to me unless I terminate it with Ctrl+C. Even if I put it into the background top still shows udisks-daemon as being the no 1 process always. I put it into the background by keeping a separate shell window open for root purposes and sent it to the background from there.
The load has not dropped at all. Also I have a USB mouse and a USB keyboard always plugged in. Other than that nothing else is plugged in. BTW this is a new issue, did not happen in 9.04 the load was stable then. I have not tried 9.10. -- udisks-daemon takes up too much CPU resources https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/525646 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
