Ask away: http://ask.fedoraproject.org Although I appreciate Dhaval commenting but response sounded like off-topic. If I were to see any process eating CPU would have solved the problem but as far as I can see there are no obvious indicators of the problem. When I boot into command line (by disabling display manager) it seems to work fine. KDE with kernel 3.11.10 works fine. And kernel 3.13.8 and 9 won't boot at all but kernel 3.13.10 might boot from time to time. Fleeing to another distribution is a sign of uber desperation and not threat as you say. It's morning here and I am troubleshooting my system instead of getting my work down. Regards, Sudhir Khanger. sudhirkhanger.com https://github.com/donniezazen
