This time I relaxed and took the time to write it down. This time I think some of the numbers are different, but I'm not sure. And, I was using the computer - even though it was not a response to an action of mine, I had typed ls -l a minute ago. What is this?! Why is my harddisk doing this to me? What does it want, attention? Help. Am I doing some- thing wrong? If this belongs in .hardware, tell me. Thanks in advance(though only if you help)... -- From the notorious Jakob Gaardsted, Computer Science Department Bed og arbejd ! University of Aarhus, Jylland (!) (Pray and work!)

I remember one of them (MachIII? Qmouse? I can't remember: I know it because I recently reviewed all these *mouse programs for an article) keeps an eye on the gvpscsi.device in order to inform you about its activity (it merely watches the task, actually). Since I don't use this device, I can't tell you anything about the way it proceeds, but this might be the answer. Consult the doc of you *mouse program, if any...
