[Bug 36581] Re: gam_server consumes lots of cpu time

[gspr]

The same thing happens here (relatively fresh Kubuntu Dapper install). It seems to be brought on either by KTorrent, amaroK or both.
I replaced the gam_server executable with an empty shell script, so now my system behaves normally. Of course, various applications complain about a lacking FAM, but other than that, it seems fine.
