Subject: cpu hog reading battery info
Date: Fri, 17 Jun 2005 15:01:42 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <42B2C9B6.2080400@hotmail.com> (raw)

Hi after upgrading to 2.6.11 doing a
cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info
hogs my cpu to the point that X and the mouse block for 1 second.
This is especially annoyng as for example kde battery monitor do that 
every 20 secs to read battery capacity.

Is it a known bug? Is there some way to dig into it?

Thank you very  much
Matteo
