Hello All,
I upgraded to 12.10 from 12.04 like two days ago and it's been running flawlessly, actually. What's even better though was that my system theme was 12.10 compatible or Gnome 3.6 compatible, rather I should say.
Nevertheless, I use Psensor pretty much all the time and even the Gnome System Monitor backs this up but my CPU is constantly running at like 40 - 50% usage all the time. Even idling the usage is high and I mean this is spread for all 4 processors.
So I checked my RAM and saw that I'm currenly using now 695 MB of 4 GB. The output from cpufreq-info told me that 3/4 processors were at 800 MHz (out of a .8, 2.10, 2.50, 3.20 GHz stepping pattern) while only one was at 2.10 GHz.
So my CPU isn't eating up RAM, nor is it overheating and nor is it even worried about being on its lowest possible frequency.
So does 12.10 just have really high idle CPU usage or what?
Okay, I see. The processes list in the System Monitor has blank processes popping in and out. The IDs change constantly but the Memory is always N/A. They are at sleeping status, just unlabeled and variable in number and lifetime.
