I just can't beat this, and can't obviously figure it out. ESD cpu load goes super high and gnome becomes basically unusable to me. Also I get no sound either. This has happened twice. I reinstalled and it worked for a bit of time, once I run updates and continue to use gnome this starts. HUP'ing or killing esd corrects the issue for a bit, but it starts again.
Has anyone seen this or have any ideas of what it could be? My laptop is a inspiron 4000 with ES1983S Maestro-3i PCI Audio Accelerator, the module is maestro. I am running 8.0 with all patches including the latest official kernel from redhat. Thanks.
