Can you switch to a vty and do a "ps -ax" on the system? See if you have
something that is starting up with the new session in a permanent Rs
state. Even though it's always "runnable", it uses no CPU and can't be
killed in any way that I can find.

I have been having problems since I updated on Monday. Last Friday was
fine.

FWIW, I only see this with gkrellm, but the only thing changed between
Monday morning when it worked and when it didn't was a new kernel. (I
have since updated both kernel and world, but it made no difference.)

Ack! Not again! Do you have ata-pci.c 1.96 or newer?
