this is my first bug report and i'm not sure if i entered all needed information, so ask if anything else is needed Hey, I got the same problem with the intel-ips module with 2.6.37.x. But the System also shuts down due to thermal problems if I do anything which causes heavy load. The problem occurs on a Thinkpad x201 3323DBG with a Intel i7 620M processor. |
after "rmmod intel_ips" load falls to normal expected values. Overview: More detailed restatement of summary. At all time when this module is loaded the load avarage is around 1,05 if there is no usage. Feels like the load is always +1 higher than actual. Steps to Reproduce: Minimized, easy-to-follow steps that will trigger the bug. load module intel_ips modprobe intel_ips Actual Results: What the application did after performing the above steps. Load avarage rises by 1 Expected Results: What the application should have done, were the bug not present. Load avarage should stay the same Build Date & Platform: Date and platform of the build in which you first encountered the bug. slackware64-current uname -a Linux tofiks 2.6.37.4 #1 SMP Thu Mar 17 14:53:38 CDT 2011 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU M 520 @ 2.40GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux Additional Builds and Platforms: Whether or not the bug takes place on other platforms (or browsers, if applicable).
