It happened again this morning and as soon as I heard my hard drive going crazy I started up top and noticed "man" was at the top of the list , but I couldn't get enough cycles to kill the process, so I had to reset the machine. Very coincidental you were running "man" and I had "man" pinned up there. Anyone??? Hubert, you mentioned a mailing list about kernel development, is it an open list? What's the list called and how to subscribe? -- Lou A.
