Something odd is going on, and I don't know what it is. I am running GkrellM, and it is showing my CPU running at 100%, and my hard drive is running. I am not printing anything, nor do I have any programs running. It has been like this for hours now. I looked at users and processes, but didn't see anything unusual:

Is this normal? I know on Windoze XP it is normal for it to start running. Also, how do I find out what is going on? I have looked for commands to see process utilization or something like that, but couldn't find anything. Thanks for any help that can be provided.
