Arghh, now my computers are too fast!! :-) ;-) :-)
BTW, the behavior with rt5 is slightly different. The problem does not
take a while to appear but rather it is there from the time I first
login after a reboot (it does not take 10 minutes or so like before to
appear). In my first try (this is the second reboot into rt5) the
problem, at some point, seemed to dissapear completely.
