This is not Hardy-specific. Running Intrepid. It's a kernel bug, and still in 2.6.7. uname -a: Linux ricardo-desktop 2.6.27-10-generic #1 SMP Fri Nov 21 12:00:22 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux.
It's the same thing here. Totem in uninterruptible sleep, can't be killed. The kernel is stuck in exit_mm, after scheduling out the process. I tried to attach gdb to it, but gdb is [code]wait[/code]ing for totem. Try to SIGTERM gdb, and it asserts from "linux-nat.c:1072". (Not sure if this will help, though...) The following message is output to /var/log/syslog, /var/log/kern.log and /var/log/messages every 2 minutes (sometimes, it's printed more than once at one time): Dec 13 09:18:38 ricardo-desktop kernel: [161877.321406] INFO: task totem:27754 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
