I just had some strange stuff happen to my SuSE 8.2 installation - it's stalling when I try to copy files and run some programs. If I try to kill the process, it doesn't go away (kill -9 pid, as root), and the machine won't shut down because stuff is still running.
What does "ps auxw" show for those processes? Are they in 'D' or 'Z' state? Does "dmesg" show any kernel errors?
