Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-smp-2.6.11-1.8_FC3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. boot kernel. 2. type something. 3. weep. Additional info:

Have you confirmed that it goes back to normal with the previous kernel? There is nothing we can do about this report if you don't give more details about your hardware. Also please ATTACH the following output gotten immediately after a reboot: dmesg lspci -n lspci
Created attachment 112463 [details] dmesg

right. i accidentally did an upgrade instead of an install (force of habit) so all my other kernels are gone for the time being. i'll download the latest stable one to make sure, but i'm relatively sure it's the problem.
ok i went back to the latest stable kernel. it's fine. as i'm booting the test kernel, i notice sluggishness as early as before the initscripts start running. I've got quiet disabled, and i notice even those kernel messages come out more slowly.
still a problem with kernel kernel-smp-2.6.11-1.9_FC3. do i need to give more info ?
I highly suggest searching upstream lkml mailing list or google for anything similar, and maybe posting there for help. This is a very odd report, I have personally never heard anything like it. If you find anything related please provide URLs here.
An update has been released for Fedora Core 3 (kernel-2.6.12-1.1372_FC3) which may contain a fix for your problem. Please update to this new kernel, and report whether or not it fixes your problem. If you have updated to Fedora Core 4 since this bug was opened, and the problem still occurs with the latest updates for that release, please change the version field of this bug to 'fc4'. Thank you.
