Hi,
top is reporting cpu usage between 25 and 50% all the time. The weird thing
is that the process list isn't showing any processes using cpu that add up
to 25 or 50%. What is going on? My system is very sluggish.
Here is a screenshot of top to show what I'm talking about:

Notice the cpu usage is over 50%, but the process list isn't showing any
processes using nearly that much. It's like that all the time and it's
making my whole system very sluggish.
I'm using an Centrino based laptop if that offers any insight into the
problem. I noticed another person having laptop issues on this list...
Thanks for the help.
