Thanks Randall, but yes I've tried to access the consoles as well, no luck. This is on my laptop. It worked great in 10.2, but now I cannot reboot or end an X session without the system hardlocking. At least when it hangs on reboot, the filesystem has already been unmounted. > > Is this repeatable, or has it just happened once? If repeatable, does it > occur 100% of the time? Oh yes, it's repeatable 100% of the time. I have to choose shutdown to actually close an X session otherwise it's hardlocked. > > If it's a one-time (or rare) thing, it might be the Reiser FS hang > problem (Bug 336669: > <https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=336669>), but this never > manifests itself the same way twice, other than that one or more > processes end up permanently hung in a D wait state.

This is a Toshiba P35 laptop with a multi-core P4 3.33GHz processor. Hardware info says: 'Mobile Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.33GHz' If I had more info, I would file a bug report, but I at least like to have a better handle on the problem than just reporting the the system hangs on logout and reboot every time. That might have to suffice in this case. -- David C. Rankin, J.D., P.E.
