Comment 8 for bug 75174

This problem has gotten worse with feisty, because kacpid and kacpid_notify aren't killable. I tried getting rid of /etc/init.d/acpid, and that stopped kacpi_notify from running, but kacpid was still there and still runs out of control whenever I run a long cpu-intensive process like a long compile. Without a way to disable kacpid, feisty can't be used on this machine.
