I have tried: 1. Removing disk from CD drive. 2. Changing boot order to HDD first 3. Removing all USB devices. 4. Blacklisting gspca_vc032x 5. Removing PM from startup list 6. Reinstalling PM None of them worked for me. The only thing that I can add to the discussion is that I had an OK install of 10.4 on a HP (desktop) and then (for non related reasons) moved the HDD to a tower with a Gigabyte MB. The problem appeared as soon as I switched on the tower. The tower has an AGP card and I tried removing that and using the onboard video (similar to the HP machine), but didn't change the problem. I put another drive in the tower and did a fresh install of 10.4 and the problem was still there.
