Gary, responding slightly OT to something you mentioned:

The latest guess is have you tested the theory that your power config needs fixing? IIRC there've been a few threads recently talking about a symptom you mention the resolution to which was posted (I think) by Randy Fishel explaining how to adjust your config. > that something is in a tight "spawn child which dies" loop. you could easily test this theory by doing repeated "ps -ef | sort -n +1 | tail " and looking at the jumps the pids make (assuming they haven't wrapped around yet, which in itself - if it happens early after boot - is probably a good indication that your theory is good).
