[Bug 680444] Re: dbus-daemon eats 100% cpu and is not responsive

[Tom Cloyd]

This problem occurs for me on KB 11.04 (fully updated) quite reliably
whenever I insert a flash-drive. I run three different boxes, one an HP
Mini 110 netbook, one a Dell desktop, and the last an HP workstation. I
keep the OS setup as identical as possible across the boxes. The problem
occurs on all 3 machines. I can only get out of it by rebooting.

I currently have no applicatin programs running on my HP workstation,
and CPU's running at 85%, with dbus-daemon leading the stampede. This is
what typically happens. This is simply nuts. How many months does this
have to keep messing us up before someone bothers to notice and fix the
problem?
