Basically this means that the process is exceuting some code in the kernel, and that code is stuck, perhaps in a loop, perhaps waiting for a lock, but regardless stuck. You can't kill a process until it is back in user-space, and if this doesn't happen, you have to reboot :( Is it possible to get the dmsg output when this occurs? That might help track down the problem, but to be honest, its likely quite hard to narrow this down to a simple fix that is appropriate for inclusion in 2.6.8, which is now in maintenane mode for sarge. Your best option is probably to try linux-image-2.6.12-1-686 from unstable. Thanks -- Horms -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
