Hi,
On a 3.3-RELEASE machine, I have two hanging tty's, ttyv0 and ttyv1.
The screen is blank, when trying to input something to it, nothing
happens. watch -W also gives no result.
A ps axl gives:
0 72794 1 255 -14 -4 0 0 ckvnlk D<Es v0 0:00.00 (login)
0 96855 1 255 4 -4 956 360 ttywai I<Es+ v1- 0:00.00 (login)
The states of these processes say something like (ps(1)):
D Marks a process in disk (or other short term, uninterruptible) wait.
I Marks a process that is idle (sleeping for longer than about 20
seconds).
+ The process is in the foreground process group of its control
terminal.
E The process is trying to exit.
s The process is a session leader.
< The process has raised CPU scheduling priority.
I tried to do a kill -1 1, to disable these tty's from /etc/ttys , to
start a /usr/libexec/getty Pc ttyv1 manually, but all without result.
Anyone having an idea?
Pieter
