What desktop environment was running on X at the time? I ask because I started to see some similar errors on my notebook a couple of months ago after I upgraded to FC2 (from FC1/FC2test hybrid).=20 I thought that my hard drive was starting to turn on me. After replacing it with a new drive and installing FC2 from scratch, I still saw the same errors. I was also experiencing massive DMA timeout errors for hda that were causing hard lockups. The really weird part was that it only happens after about two minutes logged on using Red Hat's build of KDE. Using Gnome (or any other desktop) the problems disappeared entirely. I know Red Hat cuts up and rearranges KDE when they build it, but I do not know what they are doing differently that would account for this error. I also tried KDE's packages for FC2; that worked perfectly and this problem did not appear. BTW: I have ext3 and reiserfs (3.6) partitions on this notebook. On the old hard drive, I used plain old partitions. On the new drive, I use LVM for everything except /boot and swap. --=20 Lamont R.
