l8gravely Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 Hi, I've got a pair of OrangePi 3 LTS boards running the CLI only install of Debian Bullseye with a kernel of 5.15.89-sunxi64 and all the latest updates applied. But when I run the 'top' command, I always see a load of 1.0 or higher. Even when the system is completely idle. I'm running the system of the eMMC, not SDcards. I realize that this is really more of a cosmetic issue, but I was hoping someone had a suggestion on how to fix it. The system is mostly idle, it's a test box or remote management system, so it's not really critical, and the load doesn't go high anyway. Cheers, John 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RainThings Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 You can use this command [modprobe -r sprdwl_ng ] to unload that kmod. You can use the htop command and show kernel threads, a thread with a "sprdwl_TX" in D state will be terminated. This is actually related to the WiFi driver, which not only causes the WiFi not to work, but also causes this problem. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
