Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-15; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org This is very close to the problem related in http://lkml.org/archive/2002/2/4/368/index.html but I have no USB. I have SCSI with aha152x_cs.o, and after doing "cardctl eject" that removes the module, the process scsi_eh_0 stays as zombie. If I repeat the operation of card insert and eject, I get several scsi_eh_0 zombies. Now with 2.4.18, but I have got this problem with others 2.4 kernels.
