I think I've resolved the issue.
I booted to runlevel 3 and noticed no such behavior in runlevel 3.  I
started to look for obvious simple problems and found a CD in my CDRW
drive, one that I'd burned yesterday.
Yesterday, just before leaving the house, I'd burned an ISO image to a
blank CD with my CDRW.  I had to leave in a hurry, left the CD in the
drive. Must have been major errors with that CD, not sure what, but
with it out of the drive, I have no problems.
I should probably suspect that autorun is trying to run?  And that
major errors on the CD are causing problems?
