: Problem: hung system (the only way out is hardware reset) : Kernels: Starting in 1.3.84, still in 1.3.95 : (1.3.70, 1.3.80 & 1.3.83 do not exhibit the same problem)
Showed up in 1.3.95 for me, but has also happened in 1.3.94.
: Reproducable: Yes : Environment: a) libc.so.5.3.9 or libc.so.5.2.18,
: Symtoms: System runs fine for a number of minutes, until system usage : goes up, and at some point it suddenly freezes: : e) Mouse doesn't respond : f) keyboard only responds to NUM LOCK and the special SCROLL : LOCK features : g) TCP sessions made to bound addresses while system in this state : will be connected but no further activity : h) Sendmail processes pile up before the hang
Same here.
RALT-SCROLL-LOCK shows kernel in posix_lock_file for me, to (servicing sendmail).
Log files show nothing.
