Good day

Should I be concerned?

During the boot up sequence when Mandriva mount my filesystems my hard
disk light goes on and stays on.
It stays on even though the machine is doing nothing? Must I worry about
this? It doesn't seem normal to me?

It does flicker up to the point I mentioned earlier!

My disk config is as follows.

Primary P-ata  (dual boot Windows / Mandriva) (stanndard Intel 915
controller)
2 more S-ATA on the same intel 915 controller
2 more on my Motherboards extra S-ATA Controller (Not sure but I think it
is a Promise controller)

My motherboard is an Asus P5GD1

I would appreciate any comments/suggestions

Maybe the same symptom I had. Solved it as follows :

First, go here :
http://qa.mandriva.com/twiki/bin/view/Main/MandrivaLinux2006Errata
and read the section on high CPU usage in X.org
Then, as root : urpme kat

HTH

Kaj Haulrich.

I tried all the suggestions from the webpage and I also removed kat.

But the problem still presists.

While my machine is idle and in X, I ran top and it says processor usage is between 0.3 - 3 %

Thanks
