2006-12-03 17:40:00 Lars Pohlmann description (using ubuntu-feisty). on one of my two laptops (same feisty on both) hald uses more than 40% of cpu all the time. preventing the fan to stop and making the system slow. the other laptop doesn't have these symptoms. in the laptop there are two pcmcia-cards (wlan and pcmcia-to-usb2 [with one external harddrive attached to it]). I don't know how to debug problems like these, so please tell me the information you need (and how to get them, maybe).
