hi,

i found (and opened a bugreport) that with lubuntu, there is a screensaver being installed by default and being active, which is causing ressource intensive cpu usage (70% on dual vcpu) and doubling power usage with my mac mini running proxmox. (20 instead of 10 watts).

does anybody know of any guest os installations/systems which come with graphics rich screen savers by default, causing significant cpu load ?

time for some more bugreports then...
