I have a similar problem when i want to shutdown my laptop In X when i do Redhat --> Logout then my cpu runs up to 99 % with top i see it is esd who takes all this cpu time But no logout screen comes up (i did wait for about 5 minutes). then from a console typed shutdown -h now and the thing stopt but there is something going on with the new kernel. I do not have this with the old kernel.

(together with the package: hwdata-0.48-1.noarch.rpm). Ever since then my Dell i8100 laptop hangs when trying to shutdown. I see: ..................................................................... Shutting down loopback interface: [OK] Stopping iptables: [OK] Stopping pcmcia: cardmgr[502]: executing: './network stop eth0' And then the process stops! Anybody else experienced this. It is very irritating. I can see nothing wrong with either '/etc/pcmcia/network' or '/etc/rc.d/init.d/network'. The system logs give no further info. I have an Intel PRO/100 PC card with the xirc2_ps driver. I have no other PC cards available to test and the only way I can reverse the situation is to install the old kernel again. Anybody have any hints or should I just bugzilla this.
