probably not so much a grip problem as an I/O problem. Any way to check the kernel logs on the machine? I'm thinkin they are getting flooded with I/O errors, in which case there's not a whole lot you can do, besides try not to use discs that generate such errors. Sometimes a process that is recieving these errors can be killed, othertimes it cannot. Really depends. but the symtoms you describe are in my experience similar to generic I/O errors which can be triggered by most any program accessing the hardware. nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
