 ...I have seen this same message a long time ago on a system I was 
working on ...off line I think it was a screensaver ...what RedHat linux 
was it ...asuming it is RedHat that was the system  that did the same 
thing to me, but I just can't remember what had happened and why ...I do 
know that a while back screensavers locked up linux and slowed the 
system to a crawl ...I think that is what I did ...disabled the 
screensaver and then everything worked great ...what version of linux 
are you trying to run??
