It is quite alright. I remembered to bring home a new drive for my system finally. It's been giving me fits for a couple months now. The computer didn't actually hard lock for another few minutes after killing the process. That be all, Mr O. P.S. That's not all! There is still a lot of soda and p

I'm curious if anyone else has run across this issue before. I noticed this when I was booting a system attached to a USB serial device, but eventually localized the issue to xterm itself. Basically when you put a lot of text through an xterm the cpu usage on gutsy goes way up. like 100%. I've
