when i say it hangs i mean the entire system locks up not just my process. I was connected over SSH (the physical ethernet not USB ethernet) and it stops responding to pings entirely. I also tried with it hooked up to a monitor and keyboard, and it is totally unresponsive to keypresses as well. This was on multiple kernel versions.
