I installed Unity on my Belinea o.book 13011. Now there are four Tasks named kslowd000 to kslowd003. Each task uses 10-15% CPU, expect there is another Task that needs more.
So the CPU Fan is running continously. How can I fix that?
There seem to be several bug reports about this in the 2.6.35 kernel (the one that's included in Ubuntu 10.10).
Edit:
These are (some of?) the kernel bugs involved:
It seems like there is a workaround, but it doesn't always work (automatically).
You can try to see if the following helps:
sudo -c sh "echo N > /sys/module/drm_kms_helper/parameters/poll"
