Re: Help needed with processor usage 30% (idle )
 

typing "top" in a terminal, what process is shown taking cpu time? If hildon-desktop then it did not install the patched version. If some other prog you installed then uninstall it.

must sleep; good luck

Does not matter what route you go. Follow advice on http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware

Note that you can flash bootloader, kernel, and rootfs only or those AND the eMMc (your photo, music files etc). See page linked above.

Don'r reinstall all your progs and widgets at once as it becomes difficult to spot what may be misbehaving. Do it in batches and test.

Regarding "top", when the prog is running, press the letter "p" to filter the high cpu process to the top of the table.

thank you handaxe .......

i already reinstalled the firmware using the nokia software updater .....

now the usage of processor is (2%-3%) at idle it (2.4 % most of time )....... i like those numbers....... and using "p" is good thing ........ thanx for that too ....
