that was the exact reason why I posted this issue as a kernel bug:
ideally, the kernel shouldn't lock if apps in the userspace misbehave.

just tested a couple of times to access with ssh after system hang,
after a kernel update to 2.6.15-2: the response was "no route to host".
The last attempt I made, for the first time, the mouse pointer was still
responding while the system was hung: also in that situation the client
couldn't connect (no route to host).

I really don't know how to give more details in this situation: please
help me to give you the right information. I'm currently using Crossover
Office Pro 5.0.0, but before posting I made some tests with a fresh
install of wine 0.9.5, with identical results.
