Hi,

When my networking card died yesterday (sundance based d-link card) i
used dhclient to update the route. Unfortunately it caused it to change
ip, thus today i had some NFS problems...

fstab entry:
blue:/mnt/large /mnt/large      nfs    
user,async,soft,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,tcp     0 0

Anyways, i did a bunch of umount -f's and so on and so forth as i have
done a million times before, but when i tried remounting it, nothing
happened... A quick ps aux |grep revealed:

root     26793  0.0  0.0  1740  696 ?        D    14:23   0:00
/bin/umount /mnt/large
root     26800  0.0  0.0  1868  828 ?        D    14:23   0:00
/bin/mount /mnt/large
root     26805  0.0  0.0  1868  828 ?        D    14:23   0:00
/bin/mount /mnt/large
root     26807  0.0  0.0  1868  828 ?        D    14:23   0:00
/bin/mount /mnt/large
root     26809  0.0  0.0  1868  828 ?        D    14:23   0:00
/bin/mount /mnt/large

And to further my agony a dmesg revealed:

This is, as stated before, just FYI... Anyone feeling like making nvidia
comments can read this and just skip mailing "/me no care".

CC, Since i'm not subbed.
