I have a feeling this is related to aRts. on my system (and a couple of others I've checked), when aRts has network transparency and full-duplex enabled and DHCP is used, aRts consumes 50% CPU at any given time. Disabling each of those solves the problem. -- Oded ::.. An algorithm must be seen to be believed. -- D. E.
