Same problem here. I have to kill the process manually. strace reveals it's polling all the time (while I guess it should just wait for events)
{{{ poll([{fd=6, events=POLLIN}, {fd=3, events=POLLIN}, {fd=10, events=POLLIN}, {fd=16, events=POLLIN}, {fd=15, events=POLLIN}, {fd=18, events=POLLIN}], 6, 101) = 0 (Timeout) gettimeofday({1270047222, 23323}, NULL) = 0 gettimeofday({1270047222, 23383}, NULL) = 0 gettimeofday({1270047222, 23432}, NULL) = 0 gettimeofday({1270047222, 23485}, NULL) = 0 futex(0x9142bc0, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 1) = 0 gettimeofday({1270047222, 23617}, NULL) = 0 poll([{fd=6, events=POLLIN}, {fd=3, events=POLLIN}, {fd=10, events=POLLIN}, {fd=16, events=POLLIN}, {fd=15, events=POLLIN}, {fd=18, events=POLLIN}], 6, 100) = 0 (Timeout) gettimeofday({1270047222, 123873}, NULL) = 0 futex(0x9142bc0, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 1) = 0 gettimeofday({1270047222, 123951}, NULL) = 0 poll([{fd=6, events=POLLIN}, {fd=3, events=POLLIN}, {fd=10, events=POLLIN}, {fd=16, events=POLLIN}, {fd=15, events=POLLIN}, {fd=18, events=POLLIN}], 6, 0) = 0 (Timeout) gettimeofday({1270047222, 124067}, NULL) = 0 gettimeofday({1270047222, 124114}, NULL) = 0 gettimeofday({1270047222, 124162}, NULL) = 0 futex(0x9142bc0, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 1) = 0 gettimeofday({1270047222, 124241}, NULL) = 0 }}} -- desktopcouch-service hangs with 100% cpu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/552561 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
