Message-ID: <20010409114828.A25594@antenas> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.3.17i From: "Eloy A. Paris" Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hi guys, I have seen several messages posted to l-k about people reporting processes (mozilla most of the time) hanging in the D state in 2.4.3, but I haven't seen someone posting a possible explanation or solution to the problem. Anyone knows where does the problem lie, or a workaround for the problem? I hate going through the fsck that happens when umount fails because processes are in the D state... Cheers!
