this is really strange. following a reboot, things seem okay again, 
but then it starts up and goes to the point where everything is 
unusable. this with (k)ubuntu 12.04.

not accusing TDE -- i try to keep current on all upgrades, so some 
other "fix" might be to blame. just thought there might be a changed 
default or something that i needed to reconfigure.
