Bug Description

kubuntu 9.04 alpha6
Dell XPS 1330 with intel 965 graphic card

powertop reports about 70 interrups.
3D effects are disabled

This behaviour only occurs in Kubuntu (KDE), I tried Ubuntu (Gnome) in the same computer and the number of interrups is by far less (4-5)

Sorry Jonathan Thomas,

I changed the package to kdebase-workspace because the problem happens only in kubuntu (KDE), in Ubuntu (Gnome) the number of interrups are normal.
If this is incorrect feel free to change the package again

Regards

KDE and Gnome can do things in different ways that could, e.g. expose slow rendering paths in the intel drivers.

Jonathan, why is this being assigned against X, rather than the kernel?

I don't know the root cause, so I mark this bug as invalid.
