My fc5 system hasn't "hung" in 5 days, so I'm hoping that something
that I've tried has fixed it. Still too soon to tell for sure I guess, but
here's
what I've tried:
yum -y update
(It was already up to date as of about 10 days ago, but I updated again).
Disabled the following services:
acpid
apmd
avahi-daemon
bluetooth
cpuspeed
hidd
irqbalance
isdn
Removed the following from cron.daily:
prelink
beagle-crawl-system
I'm hoping that one of these things fixed the problem.
Yeah, Beagle started eating up CPU this morning. It practically stopped my system cold. <Sigh> Ric
