I have also changed window managers, and am using Gnome so it could have something to do with the window manager.
I seem to recall that checking with ps x showed that a piece of netscape was just locked up and if I remember correctly it was related to the Java. This was a situation where I had other things that needed to be worked on and I was just happy to have the problem go away and I didn't really think about it again until now. Maybe if I have some time I'll play with it again. Colin. -- ---------------------------- Colin Johnson.
