Don't know for sure, but there have been more than a few smp problems of late. I have a big issue with x86_64 keyboard character duplication which totally goes away If I set my bios to only show one cpu, OR if I lock the X process to a single cpu with taskset. Its an easy way to rule an smp issue out (or in). It would be worth a try, especially if this never happened before on the same hardware, or if it does not currently happen with a live cd from say, Kubuntu or Knoppix or some other distro. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
