Kpowersave and hald use alot of cpu-time

I having some big problems with Kpowersave (0.7.3-1 from aur) and hald start using around 60% of my cpu-time, and will continue to do so until i restart the Kpowersave process.
This seems to happend randomly, but around every second hour or something.
It also seems like conky for example starts to take more cpu-time (like 10%) at the same time... Suggest that Kpowersave isnt the one to blame?
The computer is a Dell XPS m1330 with a Intel core 2 duo T7500 cpu.
Don't know what more information to supply, and where to start looking. Anyone understand the problem, and have an idea where to start searching?
Excuse my poor english.

i would use klaptop-daemon, i'm finding it more usefull and customizable, not quiet a fix for your problem, but using another program would maybe do the trick as well, klaptop-daemon is in the aur repositories

  • Can you use a hard drive to run bootcamp off it and also use it as a time capsule?

    Hello,
    i'm running out of space on my macbook air, so i was woundering if i could buy a portable hard drvie and use it for storage as well as to run bootcamp off it and use windows 8. But then will I be able to also use it as general storage?

    You mean Time Machine.. Yes, you can use an external drive for TM.. but you cannot use TM to backup the Windows partition. Use a windows software for that. You can use TM to a partition on the external drive for backup of the internal drive of the Air.
    The partition has to be formatted HFS+ to work.
    And it should be separate to the main partition you are using to boot to win8.. although I am not sure of all the details of that. As I have lots of windows computers around me do never dual boot a machine.

  • Apple mobile device service uses too much cpu time

    Apple mobile device service uses too much cpu time, from 88% to 99% of the CPU time.

    The best way to fix this is to completely remove all aspects of iTunes then reinstall. Step by step directions are on this article. Good luck

  • The last week, Firefox will not load up the NEW YORK TIMES. So, I have had to use Safari to do so. If this continues, I'm going to quit using your browser, and begin using Safari all the time!

    The last week, Firefox will not load up the NEW YORK TIMES. So, I have had to use Safari to do so. If this continues, I'm going to quit using your browser, and begin using Safari all the time!

    There are several other similar posts in this forum with the answers. Your post appears third in my Google search today looking for a solution so I thought I'd add the solution here as well.
    It is obviously a bug in either (or both) Firefox and the NYT.
    The quickest solution is to simply go to the VIEW Menu in Firefox, then the ZOOM option and choose RESET.
    I use Mac and this happens in Firefox 3.6.10. It does not happen in other browsers like Safari, Chrome and Camino, and it did not occur before last week.
    It has also occurred in the iOS version of Safari on iPad. Not sure how to fix it there.

  • Dock uses lots of CPU time

    I find Dock uses ~140% CPU time sometimes, I can't see a cause for it to do so. It usually stops of its own accord after a random amount of time. Killing it doesn't help, launchd restarts it and it goes back to using lots of CPU.
    I have parallels install and I have the version which has the fix (6.0.12106) and I have also tried the work around (no luck obviously).

    Never mind, I figured it out by myself. On this particular machine I had a 3rd party plug-in installed (SRS iWow 1.1.8). Removing that brought the CPU usage down to 0.1%. Usually I don't install 3rd party add-ons. This would seem to be a good policy.

  • IPhoto uses lots of CPU time while idle

    I run iPhoto '08 (7.0.2) on a G4 iMac that I use as a photo and music server. Today I was using the computer to rip some CDs and scan the covers and the computer seemed sluggish. I checked Activity Monitor and saw that iPhoto was using between 20 and 60% of the CPU time even though it was hidden and hadn't been active for at least a day. When I activated iPhoto it went back down to 1% or less. I hid it and it remained at 1% or less for a while, but after about 15 minutes it shot back up to 20-60%. Any ideas as to what might be going on?

    I seem to find that both iPhoto and Safari grow in virtual memory used and CPU used as time goes by so I try to restart each of them every couple of days and he whole computer at least once a week (no it shouldn't be necessary -- but at least it is still better than windows)

  • ITunes uses lots of CPU time when idle

    When iTunes is just sitting there with my Music Library displayed, Activity Monitor shows it's using a pretty consistent 22-25% of CPU time. I look at Activity Monitor once in a while and I've never noticed this before. I don't know if it started when I upgraded to iTunes 7.4.2 or not. Other Macs I have access to use close to 0%. I have repaired permissions, checked the hard drive, and waved the other dead chickens over it without any change. Obviously this soaks up a lot of machine resources. Any clues or ideas would be welcome.

  • Hi I am wondering if anyone can help me. I have two albums in my photos app other than the camera roll that i cant seem to get rid of. They contain duplicates of the photos i already have in my camera roll and its using alot of space.how do i delete them?

    Hi I am wondering if anyone can help me. I have two albums in my photos app other than the camera roll that i cant seem to get rid of. They contain duplicates of the photos i already have in my camera roll. One is called Photo Library, and the other is called iphone. It's using alot of space and I don't know how to delete them. Please HELP!!

    those are photos that have been synced to your phone from your computer. plug in your phone to your computer, open itunes, select 'photos' tab from the top, and uncheck 'sync photos'
    this will erase the photos from your phone that are not in the camera roll

  • CORBA - tnameserv uses too much CPU time

    The tnameserv we are using from JDK 1.3 uses a lot of CPU time.
    Anyone has advice on it?>
    Thanks in advance.

    I think if you want commercial performance you need to purchase a commercial product like Visibroker.

  • Disnoted and SyncServer using 100% of cpu on Windows 8

    When I run iTunes, aftter a little time, disnoted starts to take 50% of my cpu time.  After syncing, and removing my iPad mini, Syncserver then starts to take the other 50%.  This continues until I kill those tasks.  I am running Windows 8 and the latest version of iTunes.  Anything I can do? 

    By now we got iTunes 12.1.0.71 and the problem still occurs on Windows 8.1 if Kaspersky Internet Security 2015 (latest version 15.0.2.361) is installed. On my PC this high CPU usages already happens while iTunes syncs my iPhone. Kaspersky Version 2015 doesn't need to be running. It's enough, if it is installed. Going back to Kaspersky Version 2014 and the problem disappears. Even if the problem only happens with Kaspersky 2015 installed, their developers blame Apple for a faulty iTunes software (ref. "http://forum.kaspersky.com/index.php?showtopic=301117&view=findpost&p=2316253").
    While the problem is around for more than 6 months, it seems neither Kaspersky nor Apple will take action to fix it. I reported the issue to Apple and Kaspersky support. Is there anything else we, as simple users, can do to speed up a solution?

  • Firefox sometimes freezes up for a few minutes and begins using 47% of cpu resources and sometimes also extra 100-200kb of memory

    since updating from 3.6.xx to firefox 5, 6 and now 7, firefox sometimes will freeze while loading a site and use 42-50% of cpu resource. it also sometimes doubles or trebles memory it uses at same time as freezing, and freezes for 2 or more minutes. when it comes back sometimes it will have failed to load a page and will display the url but a white screen. this can happen any site, but seems to occur more when on image sites. usually i have more than one ff window open, one of which is an iboard, and the freezing seems to occur more often when either posting, or when opening a subboard or more often a thread in tabs or new windows. problem seemed to be helped when i disabled a recently installed java plugin but didnt disappear, and it can still happen anytime with only one window/tab open. the only common thing seems to be the site is either refreshing, or loading.

  • IWEB and TWITTER using RSS Feed wrong time

    I put in a RSS widget when building my site with iWEB '09. But the widget shows a wrong time in the Twitter timeline. It is off by 9h. Which seems to me, living in Zurich, switzerland, to be the california time.
    How can I fix this? Everything on MobileMe and so is is set to GMT +1.
    Thanks a lot. Your help would be appriciated.

    If you are using Mobile Me for your website, there is a Time Zone option in the Account Settings > Personal Information tab.
    This might cause the wrong time to appear.
    Hope it helps.

  • I can not open iPhoto.  I have many photos and have used the program many times. What is happening?

    iphoto installed, up to date and has been in use with no problems.  Now the icon still appears on the dock but I am unable to open the program. Nothing happens when I click the icon.  Help! 

    You will also need to download and run the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 on your library before you open it with the new iPhoto 9.5.1 version.

  • How Know  which user use the maximum CPU time

    Hi Gurus,
    I am looking now a days on our production server CPU utilization usage mostly 90-100%.
    How I found which user usages maximum CPU utilization.
    I know the which application takes the max Util but how User not identified. (ST06-Top CPU Users)
    Pls help.
    Thanks
    Tapo Vardhan singh

    If your production system CPU usage is 100% then you are very likely to face performance problems or in fact you must be facing them now.
    SAP recommended CPU usage is about 40% (ofcourse depends on many other factors) but 100% CPU utilization is not a convincing figure.
    Get hold of your earlywatch reports and implement suggestions as soon as possible. Possibly you would want to hardware upgrade/move your production system after doing sizing exercise.
    Good luck.
