This is common after seeing a BUG() in the kernel.  The trapping kernel
thread terminates without cleaning up after itself.  It may be holding
locks that cause other processes to hang.  The important thing is to
figure out and fix the initial BUG().

2008-10-16 Thread Tom Epperly
When I shutdown after reporting the bug, the machine didn't shutdown 
smoothly. It shutdown X11 and then just sat there with the tty0 text 
login screen. I logged in as root and tried issuing the "shutdown -h 
now" command again to no avail. I ended up having to shut it off 
manually with the hardware power switch.


A couple of days ago I had a similar situation where the machine 
wouldn't shutdown smoothly.  Any suggestions?


Regards,

Tom
