Howdy, I've been having a weird problem for the past month where about twice a week when I first unlock the system in the morning, the mouse moves really slow (about 1 second update rate) and if I press any key except ctl-alt-delete (which reboots the box but does not display the shutdown messages to the console), the mouse pointer goes away and the system is totally unresponsive. Also can't connect (ssh, ping, nfs) to the box when this happens. So far I haven't found any log messages even hinting at the problem.
This system is a ~x86 and after 3 years of running a gentoo workstation, I'm at a loss on how to trouble shoot it. Thank you, Roy -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
