Hi,

After 1 day 16 hours heaven came falling down on my i386 corner. The DHCP
server suddenly fell into a deep sleep, all connections through were still
working, but all connections in were dead. SysRQ worked. But since it was
the DHCP, some of the clients followed, seemingly having DHCP requests as
vectors.

The machine was still quite responsible to keypresses, when I pressed any
key it appeared on the screen within 5 minutes. I did a SysRQ-E SysRQ-I,
then things were fine, but I couldn't input (screen showed always the same
dead console), after SysRQ-S SysRQ-U SysRQ-B all things were fine...

Regards,
Thunder
