Re: Unknown processess

keventd was a kernel thread associated with the task queues (2.4). In 2.6,
task queues are now work queues and keventd has been replaced by worker
threads (events/X).


migration/0 it's a kernel process and directly related to the number of CPU's
you have. It's not something you can turn off, nor would you want to....

You can find that info and more with google.
