Me too. I've had this under FC2 ever since it came out. But I could never figure out a good way of reproducing it. For me, additional symptoms where that some gtk1 apps (take, say, xmms or vncviewer) suddenly were using a font like courier. At other times, I had the same problem as you - the whole machine locking up, and only logging in remotely and restarting xfs would help. It's quite maddening, since I never found a trigger for it allowing me to reproduce it. But you're not seeing ghosts. Thomas
