Not sure if it's the same, but I encounter short and less-shorts hangs apparently due to power-management here (Dell D810, within GNOME). I tried shutting down haldaemon as well as playing w/ hal polling, /proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_centisecs and /proc/sys/dev/rtc/max-user-freq, but I could not feel a difference (it's sometimes not easy to reproduce) in definitive it could seem to be more related to gnome-power-management (I got it crashed and felt better from a desktop PoV!). See several related issues I've reported: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2007-December/msg00904.html https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2007-December/msg00476.html Regards, > Konstantin Svist wrote: > > Hi all, > > > > I'm curious about haldaemon - for some reason, it takes up 3-5% cpu at > > all times on my computer. > > > > Why would it do that? > > > > Thanks -- wwp
