I have no idea what's going on with this. We've been running the 2.6.18-4-686 kernel for quite some time at Stanford with various different versions of AFS and have never seen this behavior. The evidence certainly points at AFS causing this problem in some way, but whatever the problem is, it doesn't seem to be as easy as something that would always occur with that kernel version. I don't know how to dig down and try to figure out if it is. :/ Asking on the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list may be helpful; there are more people there with more debugging experience than I have. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
