Yes, same here. Once I kill them, no problem thereafter. They don't seem to me to be related to some process running purposufely doing something useful (or even intentional). With both pegged at 100% CPU they seem more like they've gone into a loop/race condition. So I'm not sure that letting them run for any length of time will achieve anything - but will give them 5-10 minutes next time to see if they go away on their own. Another thing I noticed on a different box (x86) is that if more than say 20% or memory is being used and I select the machine to go to sleep (to RAM) it crashes. The disk spins down immediately, the monitor and input devices go to sleep, but the CPU and fans continue to run. The box will not respond to anything other than pulling the plug. I am not sure if there is something incompatible with the memory modules/controllers (I doubt it because this was a really rare event with KDE4.5) but now with KDE4.6 it happens every time. Any ideas what this might be attributed to? -- Regards, Mick
