I've seen this one on a few diffrent systems, even servers at kernel.org has seen this exact problem but noone has been able to reproduce it at will or trace it, the machines seem to "half-hang" without printing anything on the console. (this is without the vserver patch) Do you have a simple testcase that manages to reproduce it? That would be wonderful. sysrq-t (I think it's t that's interesting) and ctrl - scroll lock and altgr - scroll lock That data together with a kernel compiled with -g (debugging) would be wonderful when it's "half-hung". -- /Martin
