settings is it? My Ubuntu install on my laptop with mythbuntu packages
installed does the same thing, but I cannot be bothered to sort it, as it is
not an annoyance, and a quick tab on the mouse pad sorts it.

Aggressive power management on the hard disks could also cause the momentary
unresponsiveness as the system waits for them to spin up.

Be worth checking just to rule out.
