I have this issue on a T43p with Kubuntu Dapper. I'm not sure why this problem is, but it stopped after I switched WLAN on again. When I turned it back off cpu utilisation was very high again.
I also just setup the laptop and noticed that it does not use linux-686, so i'm not sure if this has something to do with the problem.
Btw: Why does ubuntu install kernels for such old systems by default??
