i already solved this, sorry if I didn't post anything to tell it. The box gather some process that do video processing. I found that the issue comes with a new kernel, so i thought that was a kernel (or near kernel) issue. The problem was that the new kernel has CONFIG_HZ_1000 set, and the processes (and here's the problem) made a sleep(0) to poll the video device ( "because 'empirically' it worked" ) Of course that's wrong,even if it didn't give any problem with 100Hz.
Oh wow, sleep(0) to poll :) Anyway, good to know that somebody uses that technique :D Thanks for sharing... :) regards, Mulyadi -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
