[lug] load average constant at 2

[Jason Bowen]

For about 2 weeks now, at least that is when I noticed it first, my load
average sits at 2.  This is with top reporting the idle processes at close
to 100%.  When I reboot the machine the 5 and 15 minute load averages
slowly creep towards 2.00 while the 1 minute average drops to 2.00
after letting the machine idle after I login at the console.  Has anybody
seen something like this before?
