@Maciej S Wow, that's certainly a find! I can confirm that removing the dvd drive solves the problem for me as well. Replacing the drive does not work, which leads me to the conclusion which Cristian already wrote, that it's probably a failure in the sis sata driver.
from "lspci -k" : 00:05.0 IDE interface: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SATA Controller / IDE mode (rev 03) Subsystem: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] Device 1180 Kernel driver in use: sata_sis Kernel modules: sata_sis which would lead to drivers/ata/sata_sis.c in the source if I see this correctly. Unfortunately that's where my knowledge ends. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/467127 Title: ksoftirqd/0 hogs one core after resume from suspend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/467127/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
