Dear All, I have just done a fresh install of FC3, and pulled across all available updates. I've noticed a number of issues: (1) On boot, there's a long (>10s) hang after the audit(..) message. Removing quiet from the kernel parameters via grub shows that this hang happens after the message Nov 22 19:01:55 localhost kernel: ide1 at 0x170-0x177,0x376 on irq 15 (2) Both eggcups and gnome-colume-manager die after login as gnome starts. running /etc/cron.d/prelink seems to fix this issue (this has been mentioned on the list previously) (3) On shutdown, the shutdown of the hal daemon fails. Nov 22 18:42:51 localhost haldaemon: haldaemon shutdown failed Any suggestions? Not sure what extra info I should provide, but below is the lspci -v for the IDE, which may be relevant to (1) above: 00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corp. 82801CAM IDE U100 (rev 02) (prog-if 8a [Master SecP PriP]) Subsystem: Toshiba America Info Systems: Unknown device 0001 Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 0, IRQ 11 I/O ports at <ignored> I/O ports at <ignored> I/O ports at <ignored> I/O ports at <ignored> I/O ports at cfa0 [size=16] Memory at 20000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=1K] Thanks, Jonathan.
