[HECnet] KLH10 not idling host CPU

[Zane Healy]

Does KLH10 support CPU idling?  The behavior you describe is what I always had, but it’s been years since I was actively using KLH10 (I’ve had zero time for it).

In the other, assuming you're using panda-dist, start klh10, even with the default klt20.ini file (the cpu idler is defined on by default). So far, at the KLH10 prompt, all is well. Now type "go", and you'll be at the BOOT prompt, but you don't need to boot anything. Look at "top" in your other window, and you'll observe the "kn10-kl" process shoot to the top at 100% cpu utilization.
