Yes, KDE 2. First I put Mandrake 7.2 on it, which had a pre release of KDE 2. Then Debian with KDE 2.0.1. Then upgraded to 2.1.1. All the same. The power saving is a good idea. IIRC I did not have this problem with KDE 2.0.1 before I installed Toshutils. But I always run it on full CPU speed. But sometimes I caught it switching the CPU speed to low, which is probably a bug in Toshutils. Maybe that leads to the solution. I'll keep an eye on it.
