Might this have something to do with the following boot message?: Starting virt-who: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/virt-who/virt-who.py", line 33, in <module> from subscriptionmanager import SubscriptionManager, SubscriptionManagerError File "/usr/share/virt-who/subscriptionmanager.py", line 24, in <module> import rhsm.connection as rhsm_connection ImportError: No module named rhsm.connection ^[[60G[^[[0;31mFAILED^[[0;39m]^M Starting libvirtd daemon: ^[[60G[^[[0;32m OK ^[[0;39m] If not, I'd like to test the idea that my problem with Linux dying on me is that recent kernels do not like my computer. My most recent installation that still runs reliably is Fedora 14. If I copy a kernel from F14 into my CentOS installation, what else do I need to copy with it? I know that I will need to add to my grub.conf . -- Michael hennebry at web.cs.ndsu.NoDak.edu "On Monday, I'm gonna have to tell my kindergarten class, whom I teach not to run with scissors, that my fiance ran me through with a broadsword." -- Lily

I see the same message and have that package installed, with no third-party repos enabled. And my system is working fine; Michael, I don't think this is your issue.
