Hi,

I have a problem with fsck. After a lockup of X.org I couldn't use my 
keyboard anymore and I had to reset the computer. When it rebooted fsck 
didn't start immediately, but started after the login in the background. 
After some checks fsck stops working but stays a running process (in 
"getblk" state).
Everything seems normal then but when I start X, after a while the system 
locks up again and I have to reset the machine again. If I don't start X 
but shutdown from the console it doesn't shut down because some "processes 
couldn't be killed", and the only option is to reset.

Does anyone has an idea how I can repair my filesystems?

Thanks,

Marco
