           Summary: powerbook sluggish after update from 2.6.18-rc4 to rc5
    Kernel Version: 2.6.18-rc5
            Status: NEW
          Severity: blocking
             Owner: other_other at kernel-bugs.osdl.org
         Submitter: markus at unixforces.net


Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur: 2.6.18-rc4
Distribution: Gentoo Linux
Hardware Environment: PowerBook6,2
Software Environment: 
Problem Description: after I have updated from 2.6.18-rc4 to rc5 the machine 
behaves very 'sluggish'. Programms take ages to start or don't even start. For 
example if I start an KDE application the "sand glass" in the task entry does 
nothing. normaly it twists, but with rc5 it does nothing and the application 
does not start.
well.. difficult to describe I guess. I wish I could get into a console to see 
if something eats up my cpu, but konsole does not start within 2-3 minutes... 
even CTRL+ALT+F1 does nothing.

Steps to reproduce: update from rc4 to rc5 and use your powerbook.. ;-)
