BTW, looks like that whitelisting is needed. Without that, I got these: ... /var/log/syslog:Jan 3 15:55:14 d8bbc18b833c /usr/sbin/irqbalance: thermal: socket bind failed. /var/log/syslog:Jan 3 15:55:14 d8bbc18b833c /usr/sbin/irqbalance: Failed to initialize thermal events. Also, curious about which CPU model you had that issue with. Thanks, Chang -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
