[Bug 537396] Re: events/0 spikes CPU every 3 seconds since upgrade to 2.6.31-20

[nubix]

same problem here on a lenovo T61p. and also for me: "ifconfig eth0
down" fixed the problem for the time being; I didn't yet try the "remove
battery" trick either.

took me long to find this thread.. I measured the intervals and on my
machine they are exactly 4 seconds between each stop / freeze. also I
used "top" to see what is causing the 100% processor load spikes and
found it is event/0 sometimes event/1 (lucky cpu seems to be selected
during boot). now by putting "my" keywords into this thread I hope I can
help others find it... in short: ubuntu 100% processor load every 4
seconds with event/0.
