I do not know how to debug this better. I tried to raise kernel
debugging level when
I had a similar issue, but I have not seen anything interesting.
I suggest Fedora users mailing list. Even if they do not have an answer,
maybe they will
point to someone who does. Please give us feedback if you find out the
source of the
problem.
