After that the CPU go fast in a saturation state indeed the system resources monitored with "top" utility, show that the load average increase from 0,2/0,3 to 2 or 3. The only solution that I've found is the "windows solution" : reboot the machine (sigh!)... Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Didn't try Additional info: All the package installed (except *) become from RHN. The kernel version, is the last: 2.4.18-18.8.0 Usually I work with the following programs all running: Evolution, Opera(*), gnome-terminal, Xemacs.
