Recently upgraded to kde 4.2.1 and noticed that lancelot is reported by
top as 100% cpu. Looking at system monitor - cpu settings plasmoid, it
looks like 2 of the cores (quad core cpu) are optioning off at 100%.
I'm curious if anyone else is seeing something similar?
TIA,
Roy

Also check in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and remove all references to nvidia.
Also check it's not in your module-rebuild list.

Howdy,
I have some preserved libs that just don't want to go away. I've ran
emerge @preserved-rebuild several times to no avail. I think the
