If Alt-Fn still works the interrupts still work which means it is probably a sleep/wait lockup of some sort. DDB's ps will tell you what processes are waiting on, similar to what 'ps axl' from a shell prompt does. -Matt :Greg. : :To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org :with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message : Matthew Dillon Engineering, HiWay Technologies, Inc. & BEST Internet Communications & God knows what else.
