KDE 3.2 / CPU Usage
Ok here's the details:
Dell Inspiron 8000 - Pentium III 800 Mhz 512 MB RAM 60 GB Hitachi 7K60 HDD (7200 RPM) Slackware 9.1 Kernel 2.6.0 Final KDE 3.2 (3.1.94) using CVSup When I startx, wait for everything to load, everything is fine. If I don't launch any programs, and let it sit... eventually the CPU Usage skys from practically nothing to 100%. Runnings tops, the processes causing it are X and kinit. X will use about 50% and kinit will use the rest. Also, there appears to be multiple instances of kinit.... but usually only 1 or 2 will share in the CPU eating... What is causing this?? I would like to blame it on the new KDE, but I think it was doing it before I updated... |
"What is causing this?"
Is cron starting anything? ___________________________________ Be prepared. Create a LifeBoat CD. http://users.rcn.com/srstites/LifeBo...home.page.html Steve Stites |
Umm, I didn't set any cron stuff up, so how would I check to be sure??

I do not know for sure where Slackware keeps its cron scripts. On Fedora they are in:
/etc/cron.hourly /etc/cron.daily /etc/cron.weekly /etc/cron.monthly ___________________________________ Be prepared. Create a LifeBoat CD. http://users.rcn.com/srstites/LifeBo...home.page.html Steve Stites |
Maybe you can try without the usual X 'renice' which some distros use by default.
Most if you use kernel 2.6. Myself I disabled it by replacing : :0 local /bin/nice -n -10 /usr/X11R6/bin/X -deferglyphs 16 with :0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X -deferglyphs 16 on /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers file. I think this should make an interesting test. |
