    Hard drive and cpu 100 percent

    My hard drive and cpu have been at 100% for 3 hours now. The system is completely unusable like this. Anyone have any ideas why or what I can do to fix this?

    Open a Konsole and run htop.
    Besides htop, what other processes are using the most CPU time?

    If I would guess anything it would be the baloo file indexer.

      iotop will show you what processes are accessing the hard drive, but GG's guess is the likely culprit.
