| |
I've been having a problem lately with about half a dozen machines, all running 2.2.13 (Slackware 7).
With remote filesystems mounted (using smbmount/smbfs; samba 2.0.5a), I sometimes run into a strange crash/race condition. It [usually] occurs at some point after the monitor has been shut off while in X through dpms (and X's OffTime option) - the keyboard/mouse lock (or at least, have no effect on bringing the monitor out of dpms). The machine otherwise responds fine, aside from the load avg being at 1 (race? no process was taking up _any_ of the cpu, according to top), and not being able to kill the smbmount proc.
The only solution that I've been able to come to is a reboot, which results in a hang at trying to 'unmount remote filesystems.' Am I looking at a kernel/smbfs bug, or should I direct this more to the samba folks?
Thanks, John
