Thanks Johnathon, that's a useful comment. I also found this from debian :
Disabling gnome-cups-icon ========================= On large networks, with shared CUPS servers, it might be desirable not to start the gnome-cups-icon which regularly polls the CUPS server for the status of jobs. gnome-cups-icon is launched by gnome-session by default, but this is configurable via gnome-session-properties. gnome says that it's a cupsys problem. It's true, but this is not a reason to not fix the client part. Even a malfunctionned server should lead a client to eat all cpu, isn't it ? -- gnome-cups-icon uses 100% CPU https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/44196 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
