No. > > 2-Is your / filesystem type BTRFS? No, but I was trying to format a flash drive, and that somehow started coming up afterwards. However, the flash drive in question is not connected, and I intend to format it as FAT-32, so I can use it on other systems. > > 3-How many installed kernels and initrds do you have? 2 each: initrd.img 27.5 mb initrd.img.old 26.4 mb vmlinuz 2.9 mb vmlinuz.old 2.7 mb > > 4-Do you have many optional font packages installed?

In all this time, I haven't installed anything new, or done anything different.
