Hi, everyone Fresh from and flush with the victory of getting fetchmail to work, I installed Spastic, which filters spam with procmail. Then the world came slowly...slowly to an end. Everything started running exceptionally slowly - and finally K gave up the ghost; the mouse pointer even disappeared, and after hitting CTRL-ALT-F1 it took a good two minutes to get a shell up. Once up, the thing slowed even more and froze completely, and I actually had to power the notebook down and restart. I've checked in /var/log/warn and there's nothing from today; in /var/log/messages there are some entries regarding VFS:L Disk change detected oin device sr(11,0) which I have no idea about. Can anyone tell me how to troubleshoot this? Or if I should simply immediately uninstall spastic? Thanks in advance, Nick
