Subject: nfsroot client will not start firefox or thunderbird from 3.4.0 nfsserver
Date: Tue, 29 May 2012 00:19:34 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4FC3F9F6.7010107@xmsnet.nl> (raw)

I just upgraded my home server from kernel 3.3.5 to 3.4.0 and ran into 
some trouble. My laptop, a nfsroot client, will not run firefox and 
thunderbird anymore. When I start these programs from an xterm, the 
cursor goes to the next line and waits indefinitely.

I do not know if there is any order is lsof's output. A lsof | grep 
firefox or thunderbird shows ......./.parentlock as the last line.

It does not matter whether the client is running a 3.4.0 or a 3.3.0 
kernel, or if the server is running on top of xen or not.

There is some noise in the servers dmesg:
