i8kutils: hanging system (around a half second) during read from /proc/i8k
Asked by
raphzahn
System: 13.04 on Dell Inspiron 17R SE (7720)
i8kutils (1.33)
during the read from the file /proc/i8k, the system hangs for around a half second.
e.g. following command let the system freeze for about a half second:
cat /proc/i8k
In fact, that the i8k driver reads the current temperatur and the current fan speed, the system hangs with the period of the specified timeout time.
Are there any workarounds to get it working correctly.
Is this already a known Problem?
