Subject2.0.30 consoles locking
Date
From
I don't know how to reproduce the problem but I managed to lock 3 consoles
already. They just stop and screen attached to it waits in D state, it
looks like some unrelated processes (or related via lock files common
with those of processes locked together with screen) are getting block
too. Console locking may be somehow connected with unintentional CTRL-S
pressing. 2 of the 3 stopped with ScrollLock on which means stopped by
CTRL-S. It is not possible to unlock it with CTRL-Q. I was using .29,
.28 and some other 2.0 kernels without such problems. I don't exclude
hardware problems (I do have incorrectly connected SCSI CDROM, I'm not
using it now though) but I doubt anything in the hardware can matter.

gcc 2.7.2.1 (changed recently), libc 5.4.23, binutils 2.7.0.3 (could it
be this?), modutils 2.1.34
