Here's some more information.  When one exits from K-mail a little box comes 
up saying that K-mail is being cleaned up.  Now when I exit, the box stays up 
for a *much* longer time.  And while the box stays up the grinding/barking 
sound continues.  

It seems to me that KDE is screwing up somehow.  But I am still able to boot 
into Linux without any fsck errors.  I'm just wondering if I need a new hard 
disk.
