I'm running SuSE 10.0 with all of the resent updates and security fixes from "SuSE watcher".
My machine has some processes running that use up to 100% system utillization. They are "kio_file" and "kio_thumbnail" in the "/tmp" directory. I can hear the harddrive for short bursts every few seconds, several of the many kio_file and kio_thumbnail processes use from 20% up to 100% system utillization.
Does anyone know what these are and how to stop them? They reappear as soon as I kill them in the process table.
The first thing you want to do is make sure you have all maintenance applied. If it re-occurs after that, I suggest you file a bug report with your distribution.
