From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040518 Firefox/0.8 Description of problem: After launching hwbrowser the mouse freezes and, judging by the CPU usage, hwbrowser stops doing anything. The keyboard still responds so I can close it by navigating to the Cancel button. When I try to log out or restart the system, Gnome seems to close but then X just freezes. CTRL+ALT+DEL doesn't work and I have to resort to hitting the reset button. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kudzu-1.1.62-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run hwbrowser Actual Results: Mouse freezes and hwbrowser stalls. Expected Results: hwbrowser runs. Additional info: input: USB HID v1.10 Mouse [Microsoft Microsoft 3-Button Mouse with IntelliEye(TM)] on usb-0000:00:10.0-2

If your machine is locking up, that's a kernel issue.
The system only freezes when I try to shutdown X.
Fedora Core 2 has now reached end of life, and no further updates will be provided by Red Hat. The Fedora legacy project will be producing further kernel updates for security problems only. If this bug has not been fixed in the latest Fedora Core 2 update kernel, please try to reproduce it under Fedora Core 3, and reopen if necessary, changing the product version accordingly. Thank you.
