In test9-pre6, when going to compile something - just hit make, gcc kicked in - and grepping, my system came to a semi-deadlock both times. By this I mean that you can switch between vconsoles pretty snappily (this system has no X), but you cannot type at all on those consoles (I think 5 minutes was a pretty adequate timeout). This sucks pretty hard. I tryed SysRq-S(ync), -U(nmount), which printed SysRq: Emergency Sync and SysRq: Emergency Remount R/O respectively, but I didn't get the confirmation messages telling me that it actually worked, even after waiting about a minute. Mercifully, the SysRq reboot works. A belated bug report: My system sits idling, logged out at home, and in test9-pre4, I'd get home to the exact same situation; could've been that 2-hour-idle bug. d -- Daniel Stone Kernel Hacker (or at least has aspirations to be) [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://dustpuppy.ods.org -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.1 G!>CS d s++:- a---- C++ ULS++++$>B P---- L+++>++++ E+(joe)>+++ W++ N->++ !o K? w++(--) O---- M- V-- PS+++ PE- Y PGP>++ t--- 5-- X- R- tv-(!) b+++ DI+++ D+ G e->++ h!(+) r+(%) y?
