I noticed the same thing yesterday while trying to create a live usb key using livecd-iso-to-disk, only it only seemed to be impacting certain GUIs. While creating the key, firefox was completely unresponsive. Gnome terminal seemed to work just fine. Accessing the GNOME dash (either by pressing the meta key or moving the mouse to the hot corner) was unresponsive, but I could press CTRL-ALT-down to get to the second virtual desktop. In my quick tests in the airport this morning, the issue appears to be related to USB I/O (at least on my machine), as I can't reproduce the problem copying data from one SATA disk to another (using a SATA disk in the CD-ROM bay). I'll try to do some more testing once I get back home. -- Jared Smith Fedora Project Leader -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
