    I'm running 2.3.46. Looks amazing from here, on my not so sophisticated
    do-it-all home machine. Responsive at 22 load(!!!)

    Question: kampd seems to need 2% of my CPU (according to top) all the
    time. Right now my machine has been up 6hours and its been running for
    6minutes of that time. What's it doing? Can I turn it off? Might not
    seem like much, but thats nearly enough to play a mp3 ;) I just use APM
    for poweroff-on-shutdown on this machine. Here are my compile options for
    APM ("not set" stuff zapped):

    CONFIG_APM=y
    CONFIG_APM_DO_ENABLE=y
    CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE=y

    I have the IDLE stuff turned on, but its disabled in the BIOS. I must be
    missing something obvious :( Could someone please enlighten me? Im sure
    its just a configuration thing that I'm doing wrong. I couldnt dig up ANY
    info on it at all... nothing in linux/Documentation, even google comes up
    with nothing.
