Sorry to be swamping this thread with messages.
In an effort to isolate problems on my system, I have:
(1) temporarily removed amarok and its two helper packages
(2) restarted the system
top continues to report dozens of zombie bash instances. They are
spawned fast and many (?) appear to be cleaned up fast. (I thought the
whole point of a zombie process was that it couldn't be cleaned up, but
that shows how little I know :-( ) These zombie processes appear to be
linked to amarok, but amarok is not running on this system. It is
uninstalled.
