@david
All the stuff i said before was kinda fumbling in the dark.
The real problem is with the bcm43xx module, for your wireless card.

Everything runs fine here, after i put the module in
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.

[Bug 183461] Re: ksoftirqd/1 using 50% CPU or above

2008-01-16 Thread bobslaede
About 2 minutes after removing the module, (the wifi card is turned off on my 
laptop), the laptop freezes, and the capslock light on the laptop blinks 
rapidly.
Its not possible to send keystrokes to the kernel or anything, like 
ctrl+alt+prntscreen+REISUB.

[Bug 183461] ksoftirqd/1 using 50% CPU or above

2008-01-16 Thread bobslaede
Public bug reported:

ksoftirqd (ksoftirqd/1) is using 50% CPU or above when idle.
As others have already found out this is a bug with a module for a tv-tuner 
card. But I don't have such a card, and no such module is loaded.

System info: Ubuntu 7.10

Unloading bcm43xx (my wireless card) ksoftirqd/1 jumps to 100% CPU load.

I can't imagine this is good

Apparently, when I'm not using a dual screen setup, none of this
happens...

I'm not sure how to clarify the problem, or how to make it reproducible
for others
