khubd taking 100% CPU after unproperly removing USB webcam

2007-01-16 Thread Jerome Lacoste
Hi, I unplugged my (second) webcam, forgotting to stop ekiga, and khubd is now taking 100% CPU. - lsusb doesn't return - /etc/init.d/udev restart didn't resolve the problem. Is that a problem one may want to investigate or should I just forget about it (problem being cause by a user error)?

I have a VIA Epia M1 board that crashes very badly (and pretty often, especially when using DMA). I want to fix that. Serial console + magic SysRQ didn't help so I am going the nmi watchdog way. But in order to have nmi watchdog I need APIC, right? The C3 processor seems to support IOAPIC.
