My system is going haywire! I just installed Linux, and I haven't put
anything on it. Yet this is what "ps" shows:

I haven't started any of these, except telnet and the usual default
processes...what's going on? I have 128 mb of RAM, and yet all my memory
is used up and my CPU is at 100% according to "top"!
