SubjectProcess in D state (was Re: 2.6.0-test5-mm2)
Date
2.6.0-test4 was pretty solid for me.  My main gripe was the weird key repeat 
problem I've mentioned before (where sometimes a key up event will get missed
or delayed for no apparent reason, happens about twice an hour in normal
laptop usage).

I upgraded to 2.6.0-test5, but USB didn't work (I bought a scanner), so I
tried -mm2 and USB is back and happy.

But, twice in a row now I've made this happen:

1391 pts/1 S 0:00 /bin/bash
1419 pts/1 S 0:00 /bin/sh ./build.sh
1423 pts/1 S 0:00 /bin/bash
/home/landley/pending/newfirmware/make-stat
1447 pts/1 D 0:04 tar xvjf
/home/landley/pending/newfirmware/base/linux
1448 pts/1 S 0:37 bzip2 -d

All I have to do is run my script, it tries to extract the kernel tarball, and
tar hangs in D state.

How do I debug this? (Is there some way to get the output of Ctrl-ScrLk to go
to the log instead of just the console? My system isn't currently hung, it's
just got a process that is. This process being hung prevents my partitions
from being unmounted on shutdown, which is annoying.)

Other miscelanous bugs: cut and paste only works some of the time (it pastes
blanks other times, dunno if this was -test5 or -mm2; it worked fine in
-test4).

The key repeat problem is still there, although still highly intermittent.

The boot hung enabling swap space once. I don't know why. (Init was already
running and everything...)
