I have a process on my machine that ps aux and top report as 'asleep and
non-interruptable' ("D" in top).  I've perused my O'Reilly books and what
online help I can find as to how to kill this thing.  So far, the best I've
been able to figure out is reboot the machine.  :(

I would rather avoid the Redmondian solution to this problem.

Is there any way to wake up a sleeping process so that it *is* interruptable
(and therefore killable)?

(Yes, I have tried to kill it as root, yes I have tried kill -9  and just
about every other kill -n combination I could find).

Cheers,

James
