Closing it down again let things settle down again. Maybe gkrellm is the problem. I have xscreensavers-base installed and do not see any speedup in cpu utilization. I do not have gnome-screensaver installed either.

I am running FC5 on the 600m and it was upgraded from FC4. Currently Using the Picture folder screen saver.
Are you able to select what screensavers you want to use or are you still limited to all, none, blank screen or one?
Anyway, thank goodness I don't have an Inspiron. :-) Jim -- Why do we have two eyes? To watch 3-D movies with.
