Package: kernel
Severity: important
As currently cifs is broken too, users with a mixed network including
win clients might need to fallback to smb. Here we get the following
problem (client hangs frequently until timeout):
kernel: smb_add_request: request [d5a8be80, mid=57] timed out!
(just as an example). The problem is very frequent when KDE is used
(the KDE browser intentionally tries to read files that do not exist
like .directory and follows symlinks).
Any recommendations? Any patches that I could try?
