No, not in this case.  The machine does run warm, and I run about 1.3
buildworlds/day on it (on average, lately -- used to be a lot closer to
2/day).  And it was on a flat, hard surface at the time (and I don't
think it was doing a buildworld).

Indeed, I'm failing to recall most anything useful about the
experience... except that I *was* able to cut/paste into xterms (thus
eliminating a rogue xlock process as a likely culprit).

Cheers,
david
