Thanks for the reply...
I seem to get from the bug reports and message threads that it could be ACPI
or autofs. If it IS ACPI, maybe this is the reason for my slowdown also. I
need to check and find out what what to do, but I can't do anything since I
can't get back into X. Any ideas on what I can do to get my X server back
up? This is the real problem for me right now...
