[Cooker] weird process

[Bryan Opfer]

I have a process running on my Cooker machine that starts running as
soon as I log into Gnome and continuously uses about 40% of the CPU even
if I do nothing.  The process is kapm-idled and it is process id 3.  I
can't find a binary anywhere on the system with this name. Can anyone
tell me what this is and how I can kill it? It seems to have started
since I upgraded to kernel 2.4.

Thanks,
