I'm running feisty on an HP dv4000 laptop. I'm using both the low-
latency and generic 2.6.14 kernels.
I keep religiously updated to the repositories. Starting today, gnome
desktop and even the gdm login screen have been freezing on me.
Sometimes the freezing is brief (for a matter of seconds), sometimes
it's very long (many minutes). It's not clear whether or not input that
occurs during the frozen time period is always lost.
I'm pretty sure (but not absolutely positive) that when I switched to
working in kde today, this problem didn't occur.
I also tried using Windows for 30 minutes or so just to check that it
wasn't a hardware problem. I had no problem in Windows, although it's
possible that I didn't stay in Windows long enough to truly confirm that
it's a only a Linux or Gnome bug.
I'm not 100% certain, but this also may be only occurring when I'm
having wireless lan connectivity problems.
