Ok, here's a weird one: I started GIMP today, and while it was trying to load a plug-in, my Zip started spinning non-stop. I did a ps alx to see if I could find the process causing it, and there didn't seem to be one. So I unplugged my Zip, plugged it back in, then tried to mount it, and it wouldn't. I have done this before, even removing my Zip to take it to work, and it mounted just fine after reconnecting, but not this time. I did another ps alx and saw the mount /zip command, so I tried to kill it and couldn't (it's still there). So I tried to mount my /syjet which is on the same scsi chain, and couldn't do that either. Now I have both mount /zip and mount /syjet hanging as processes that can't seem to be killed. I tried -2 -3 -6 and -9, and even killall -9 mount, and nothing would kill those two processes.
I could just reboot, but I shouldn't have to, should I? Besides: $ uptime 11:53pm up 13 days, 1:22, 6 users, load average: 2.00, 1.83, 1.12 ...I don't really want to stop now. :) Any help you can give would be *much* appreciated. Oh, yeah, FWIW, the plugin was whiptail (I think). TIA, Matt -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null
