I have had a similar problem with kernel-image-2.6.2-1-686 and kernel-image-2.6.3-1-686. In my case, kdm starts X. At this point I can switch to a vt and there is ~0 cpu usage. Once I log into KDE, though, the mouse is jerky and user cpu usage hovers at ~15%. Top doesn't show any processes using the cpu, though. See bug #232128 for more info and lots of various log files. I haven't stayed in KDE for more than a minute or two, though, as the mouse is practically unusable. I am currently using kernel-image-2.6.0-1-686, as it works fine for me. I never tried a 2.6.1 kernel. Josh Metzler -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
