I am also experiencing disk thrashing with the following characteristics. - Mouse becomes very slow to respond - Keyboard becomes extremely slow or unresponsive - screen becomes unresponsive - often requires a power down - Tracker has been disabled - Compaq Presario R3000 with AMD 64 - Install of Gutsy 7.1 on new partition - Dual boots to Windows XP with no disk problems - Fedora 7 was previously installed on same machine with no disk problems. - System Monitor (and Htop) shows 100% CPU but all listed tasks are only using a small fraction of the CPU. Swap is not being used. (But may not be accurate because often screen freezes when the thrashing starts).
