I have this problem on 10.04 Lucid Lynx as well. The computers is just booted and only the housekeeping application are running.
The load is at 0.31 and I have no clue why. ASAP I try to do something more computational challenging, as to start firefox..., the system slow down and degrade badly till a point my only option is to reboot. I think this is stil a valid bug. @dino99: why did you put the Invalid tag? -- memory eaten: poll_schedule_timeout https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/488849 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
