    Running on FC6, all uptodate as of yesterday, using LVM on an XP-2800
    Athlon & a gig of ram.

    First boot of 2.6.20-rc4 here, in the messages scrolling by, the nptd
    startup failed. But after fully booting and x was started, a restart
    worked, albeit it took several seconds for the startup phase. NDI if it
    means anything or not.

    And maybe I'm seeing the effects of this ext3 bug that's hurting
    kernel.org here, it seems the x startup has everything 100% serialized
    now and that's slow as snails. A good 15-17 seconds from the background
    image being loaded to all the shells reopened I left open when I logged
    out of x, and gkrellm is all restarted. With a cpu running at 2.1 ghz,
    and a 333mhz FSB, I'd think that should be 2, maybe 3 seconds. And I
    think I can recall times like that when I was running ext2 in a past
    life. I'm hoping whatever fixes kernel.org will filter back to us peons
    in due time.
