Thanks, Mauro. Sorry, I did not try that samsung-specific package since you mentioned it has no effect. The kworker returned in full might. I have to do 3-4 reboots on average (followed by the power cord trick) until the system starts properly - the payback for a few consecutive days of normal boots.
This is a kernel problem and looks like no one is working on it at the moment. The infamous "evolution-calendar" error that is just mildly annoying (though happening to everyone) was assigned higher priority last time I checked. Let's wait until this bug actually gets assigned. I doubt it would magically resolve itself in any future kernel releases. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/887793 Title: Kworker constantly taking about 100% CPU To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/887793/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
