Hi
After the last upgrade yesterday I now have xfdesktop maxing out 1 core. It did switch between the cores but hasn't dropped in CPU useage. I have rebooted a couple of times, without any change. This pushes the core temp up so I can't use it for very long. I've not had the problem before.
Just wonder whether anyone else has experienced this issue?
Any help/insight would be appreciated.
Cheers
Ozi
EDIT: now both cores are maxing out, will switch back to standard debian kernel.
Was it a normal dist-upgrade or a kernel upgrade?
Sorry to hear about these heat and cpu issues Oz, hopefully we can get it straightened out
Hi V1
You snowed in?
I did a kernel upgrade a couple of days ago, and all seemed to be fine.
Did a standard upgrade yesterday, had to wait for python2.7 bug to be fixed.
I've been trying to get the live-build to do what I want and was planning to do some testing over the long weekend, so might have to postpone that until I can resolve this. :(
Cheers

No snow here Oz, plenty cool though ... that is changing tomorrow and the next few days
3.7.0-10 is the last liquorix kernel you updated to? I am not seeing any issues with it on my AMD systems...
Did switching back to the debian kernel help? I have seen things like this in the past with Liquorix, and it is typically fixed fairly quickly
I am dropping to tty now to see what is what with the Liquorix kernels
No snow here either! :) Only 10 days of 30+ C :(
Yes 3.7.0-10 was the last kernel I installed. I'm on Intel Core 2 Duo Dell laptop.
I'm not sure it's the kernel the previous one was ok, but when I back to it after I started having this issue, it was doing the same thing. Might trying removing and re-installing xfdesktop as well.
EDIT:
Just install the 3.2.0.4 amd64 debian kernel the same issue persists both cores maxed out, temp rising.
Removed and re-install xfdesktop4, no change.
As I recall I waited for the last upgrade because of python 2.7 bugs.
Curiouser and curiouser!
This laptop dual boots, and I have been using windows 7 for about half an hour.
I'm back in debian sid with liquorix 3.7.0-10 core temp is now down from 75C to below 45C and xfdesktop4 has dropped off the radar on both mem and cpu usage, cpu usage is around 7%. I have conky and htop running to compare results and all looks good now.
It's all black magic..... puzzled...
