Adding some information in case it's useful. Old - but still useful - Intel Core 2 laptop with discrete Mobility Radeon GPU. I had nvidia packages installed for development purposes years ago, but don't really use them any more. After the upgrade from 17.10 to 18.04 (only performed 2018-05-12, several days after official release), I noticed single-threaded 100% CPU usage from systemd-udevd, with modprobe starting and exiting over and over again. I saw lots of messages complaining about NVIDIA hardware not being found in dmesg output. After uninstalling the nvidia packages and rebooting, the high CPU usage seemed to go away.
So at least on my system, it seems there was a conflict between having nvidia drivers present with no NVIDIA hardware available. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1759836 Title: systemd-udevd consumes 100% of CPU To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bluez/+bug/1759836/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
