Re: [trinity-devel] tdepowersave - continually grinding away 3.6%-6% of CPU -- confirm?

I see dead people. I see dead people everywhere.... I don't see high numbers. tdepowersave is at the top of my top list at about 3%. Traditionally kmix and knotification-daemon always have been at the top of top too, at about 2%. I'm sure our tdepowersaverc files are different. Perhaps post your tdepowersaverc. Here is mine: [General] ActionOnS2DiskButton= ActionOnSleepButton= AlreadyStarted=true Autostart=false AutostartNeverAsk=true batteryLow=4 batteryLowAction=SUSPEND2RAM batteryWarning=10 batteryWarningAction=BRIGHTNESS batteryWarningActionValue=10 lockOnSuspend=false [Notification Messages] systemtrayquitTDEPowersave=false [Performance] autoDimm=true autoDimmAfter=4 autoInactiveActionAfter=10 blankSs=false brightnessPercent=60 disableNotifications=false disableSs=false powerOffAfter=8 specPMSettings=false standbyAfter=6 suspendAfter=7 [Powersave] autoDimmAfter=4 autoDimmSchemeBlacklistEnabled=false autoDimmTo=25 autoInactiveAction=Suspend to RAM autoInactiveActionAfter=10 brightnessPercent=60 disableNotifications=false disableSs=true powerOffAfter=7 standbyAfter=5 suspendAfter=6 I don't use the tdepowersave much, even when on battery. Mostly because of bug report 1623. Typically I press Fn+F4 (Thinkpad T400) or close the lid. I'm not a comfortable laptop user anyway. I hate laptop keyboards and trackpads. Right now I use the laptop as my guinea pig with all of the help handbook patching I have been doing. Having the laptop next to me on my desk next to my production system is convenient. I've disabled the trackpad and attached a wired mouse, but I still I hate the keyboard. Generally, laptops suck and I'm amazed at how awful they are designed from a usability perspective yet people use them and then convince themselves they are pigs in mud. :) Darrell
