I have installed under VM using a virtual CTC for connections to LINUX. When I use a X window on my PC to get to the LINUX I get the XFREE86 login screen. Then I get a LIGHTHOUSE picture. This comes up very slowly. I monitor the system on MAINT and find that the cpu usage is going up and up until it hits 100%. All TELNET,SSH connections are kicked off the system. I can no longer issue commands to the LINUX nor TELNET in. When I reboot and switch to desktop KDE, I get the same loop. I have no choice but to reboot again.
