1 G'day,
2
3 I was wondering if anyone might have any idea's as to what is causing my new
4 Toshiba A300 Satelite to idle at a load of 1.00 when not in use. Right after
5 boot up it settles at 1.00 when I do nothing. I'm not seeing anything out of
6 ordinary in dmesg ( asside from an non issue with legacy usb and sd and sr
7 drivers in the kernel ).
8
9 I had Ubuntu on this thing for a week or so as I needed something quick fast
10 when my workstation chipfan died on me and this wasn't an issue when I had
11 that installed so I think I can rule out hardware. Also, its not an issue
12 when I boot up via live cd ( sysrescuecd ).
13
14 I've tried different cpufreq governors ( default is ondemand ) and that
15 doesn't appear to be an issue.
16
17 Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
18
19 Thanks.

28 world is more dangerous than an open mind." -- Matthew Good
