After starting GNOME, my CPU usage remains very high and top shows that the process polkit-gnome-manage is using up a lot of CPU (around 51%) when the laptop is idle. Any idea what might cause this? After logging into GNOME from gdm, the splash screen does not go off on it's own. Not sure if these are connected. -- Gautham Ganapathy http://lisphacker.org
