Interesting! Commenting-out the floppy line in /etc/fstab (and 
rebooting) had no effect on the delay with XMMS browsing through the /mnt 
directory. Must be something else wierd going on. (I waited a couple of 
minutes before using xkill to get rid of XMMS so I don't know if it 
eventually would have succeeded or not.)

     One correction to my earlier post: there is a fan in the box -- I can 
hear it now but didn't notice it yesterday. Don't know if it's a general fan 
for the whole box or one that's planted onto the processor. I'll know later 
in the week when I open the box.
