Ok - so most y'all already know that I'm fully on with the 9.1rc2 stuff and never reverting back to my previously horrible nature of being a RedHat person. With that understood, here's a poser:
After a reboot, and when I first do a login, my KDE desktop has these three wonderfully strange icons that pop outta nowhere - they've got icons as devices, but the rest makes no sense to what I can figger out. The names are: * dynamicProbing * dynamicAdding * dynamicProcessing Now, I happily delete them, but this is getting rather old. Happens with ALL users and even "root". Meanwhile, something I've noticed - if I set the system to runlevel 5, more memory is used, churned, burned; if I start in runlevel3 and "hand start" my Xwindows sessions, I have more speed, more memory and less worries. I started doing this because the other day TWICE the entire system locked up tighter than a drum and I couldn't even telnet into it from another machine due to it's complete and utter lack of response; the CPU "fire applet" was off the scale...but whilst starting Xwindows by hand, it nary moves a molecule and flies like the dickens... -- Sat Mar 15 09:25:00 EST 2003 09:25:00 up 1:20, 4 users, load average: 0.19, 0.50, 0.39 ------------------------------------------------------------------ | __ __ | kuhn media australia | | / ,, /| |'-. | http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |=================================| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' | stephen kuhn | | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |/ ._/ |"""""""""| | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |'. `\ | | | icq: 5483808 | | ;"""/ / | | | | | smk ) /_/| |.-------.| | mobile: 0410-728-389 | | ' `-`' " " | Berkeley, New South Wales, AU | ------------------------------------------------------------------ linux user:267497 * MDK 9.1 * PC/Mac/Linux/Networking/Consulting ------------------------------------------------------------------ ** This messages was composed on a 100% Microsoft free computer ** I don't want a pickle, I just wanna ride on my motorsickle.
