The detection of an X-ray outburst from the old nova GK Per at a time
when the object had brightened optically by about 1 mag is reported. The
outburst is interpreted in terms of an increased rate of accretion of
material from the secondary via Roche-lobe overflow onto the white dwarf
of the system.
