Public bug reported: Trying to run 9.04 live CD and every time I adjust the volume with the knob on the side of my laptop, the notify-osd process goes to 100% of cpu and stays there making X effectively lock up. The mouse cursor is still visible and moves, but nothing else works. When I switch to a console, and run top, I see notify-osd at 100%. If I kill the process, notify-osd just comes back and resumes using 100% of CPU.
I'm on an Toshiba Satellite laptop. Model U-305-s7449. This is very reproducible and happens within seconds of touching the volume knob (which works fine in 8.04). I'll play around with this more later. I'm not exactly a newbie, but I'm not a programmer either so some hints to diagnose this would be welcome. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- notify-osd runs at 100% of CPU locking up X https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/367069 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
