Does anyone have a foolproof way of preventing kdm_greet using 100% CPU in version 4:3.5.13-0debian9+r1261450+pr19~squeeze ?
We have:
# grep -i sak /etc/trinity/kdm/kdmrc UseSAK=false
but still we see 100% CPU usage on some (but not all) laptops after power up before login. Laptops are running 30°C hotter with kdm_greet running 100%, resulting in occasional failures.
TIA,

That's not good! I would suggest trying Slavek Banko's 3.5.13 updates PPA, available here: https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/~slavek-banko/+archive/axis

I couldn't seem to find a kdm-trinity for squeeze there: https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/~slavek-banko/+archive/axis/+index?f...
I didn't want to do a wholesale replacement of squeeze/stable so I updated sources.list as specified and then did "apt-get update" and "apt-get install kdm-trinity" which seemed to replace kdm-trinity and six other squeeze/stable packages with the ...+ax9 versions: kcontrol-trinity kdebase-kio-plugins-trinity kdebase-trinity-bin kdesktop-trinity kdm-trinity kfind-trinity konqueror-trinity
This seems to have fixed the kdm_greet 100% CPU problem on the laptop I tried it on (although 6-7% CPU is still high for an idle login screen!). If I get time I'll try to see if I can return any of those seven packages to squeeze/stable versions so we can stay as close to squeeze/stable as possible.
THANK YOU

It surprises me that you are defending other updates. There's just lots and lots of bug fixes. See:
http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::3008
It is planned that these updates will be released as an official update for 3.5.13. By using this PPA is thus only got faster :)

We very much appreciate all your hard work. There is great value in running stable suites and only introducing necessary bug fixes. We look forward to taking on many more of your bug fixes when Tim releases the next official update.
