Subject: 2.6.24 regression: pan hanging unkilleable and un-straceable
Date: Mon, 21 Jan 2008 21:58:06 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1200949086.6648.19.camel@Anastacia> (raw)

With Linux 2.6.24-rc8 I often have the problem that the pan usenet
reader starts using 100% of CPU time after some time. When this happens,
kill -9 does not work, and strace just hangs when trying to attach to
the process. The same with gdb. ps shows the process as being in the R
state.

I pressed Ctrl-Alt-SysRq-T, and this was shown for pan:
