[Bug 30557] Re: cpu idle time in /proc/stat wrong

[Brian Eaton]

This problem still occurs if I use the stock kernel.org 2.6.15 source
(or the Debian source) with the Ubuntu 686 config file.  I see a couple
of possibilities:

1) There are two separate bugs being discussed here.  This would explain
several discrepancies in the bug reports, particularly why some people
see serious performance degradation, and others only reduced battery
life.

2) These are the same bug with different environments producing
different symptoms.

Given that the bug I'm seeing (which is probably the same as the one
Steve Bourg is seeing) can be reproduced using the stock kernel source
code, should this issue be pushed upstream?
