[Bug 30570] Re: CPU usage very high with no running tasks using it

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 30557 ***

I have a similar problem on my Dell Latitude D810. I'm using the ati driver.
The gnome system monitor always shows about 70% cpu usage.

However, and maybe the other reporters should check that as well, I get
completely different values when I query the CPU load with top (60%
idle), sar (95% idle) and vmstat (high fluctuations here).
