This problem was completely solved by the switch to gamin. For me gamin works perfectly OK. By the way i have seen Firefox3 sucking all the X processing power (to the point the display was almost completely frozen), return to the normal being obtained when killing firefox. I have seen that only on some specific web pages, but it was completely reproducible on these web pages. -- Michel TALON
