I'm leaking, and I don't know why...

Alle,

	I've been running Psyche for about 5 months now and I'm about at my
wits end. I think I have a memory leak somewhere, and for the life of me
I can't find it.
	For example, I boot up and login into Gnome or KDE and do nothing (I
literally do not TOUCH the machine). Free memory looks like this:

[cwfox@xxxxxx cwfox]$ free
             total       used       free     shared    buffers    
cached
Mem:       1030512     167552     862960          0      13804     
72400
-/+ buffers/cache:      81348     949164
Swap:      2040244          0    2040244
[cwfox@xxxxxx cwfox]$

	After six hours of not touching the machine:

[cwfox@xxxxxx cwfox]$ free
             total       used       free     shared    buffers    
cached
Mem:       1030512     739676     290836          0      17408    
611360
-/+ buffers/cache:     110908     919604
Swap:      2040244          0    2040244
[cwfox@xxxxxx cwfox]$

	At the end of 12 hours (untouched), memory use is above 95% and I
haven't even run an "ls".
	I've run top to see which process(es) is(are) the hog(s), but nothing
seems out of the ordinary (X is the biggest, but always around 68MB).
	I've searched bugzilla and applied the Xft fix for BUGID 76219 with no
joy.
	Can anyone out there help me or point me in the right direction? I'm
almost ready to give up on Psyche altogether.I running on an Fujitsu
Lifebook E7110 P4 2.2GHz, 1GB Mem, ATI RAGE Mobility 7500 w/32mb. I've
had this problem since the installation of the stock kernel all the way
through to the current 2.4.18-27.8.0.
