And thanks for the quick response! Hi Tejun, the system did hang again twice even with the new libata driver but I am not sure if this really has something to do without. Somehow I am starting to believe that the problem is somehow IRQ related. Today the network card (skge driver) did not respond anymore (NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out) and the interrupts did not count up anymore (even though the card still had a link). Furthermore I remembered some problems with USB mouse and keyboard not working properly anymore and logged in from remote I saw that interrupts were also not increasing ... Are there any known issues in this area with SMP kernels? Best regards, Jochen -- Well, yeah ... I suppose there's no point in getting greedy, is there? << Calvin & Hobbes >> - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
