There was something like EXT3 daemon issues or many versions of the same desktop search software running at the same time. At the command line type 'top'. See if there are multiple processes running in there. Find and kill the process with something like 'ps ax | grep [name of process]' Or, for SSH .... ps ax | grep ssh. If SSH is process ID 5678 then you type 'kill 5678' to kill it. > Ideas please. Could be something else but the above seems like a good place to start :) -- Richard www.linuxuser.co.uk www.sheflug.org.uk -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
