System: 3.0 with the bouncing daemon screen saver
What I saw: The bouncing daemon was on the screen but was not bouncing.
Not moving at all. Pushing keys including F1-F3 did nothing.
Killing console all processes (ttyv0-2) did nothing. Telnet
sessions, wweb server, etc worked just fine. Top reported
~98% idle time, no strangeness. Except for the console
everything seemed to be working fine.
What I did: Rebooted of course. Some of my users consider a daytime reboot
to be anti-social behavior.
What should I do: Short of rebooting what can I do when this happens again?
Thanks
hal
