Hello!
I have unkillable process. It appeared some time ago, but I noticed it
only today. Even worse, it started to eat 100% CPU after I
tried to kill it.
See sample session below.
The box is dual PIII-450, 256M RAM. kernel is 2.2.14pre4, gcc 2.7.2.3
compiled.
gpm listens on a named pipe /dev/msmouse (not a tty!)
Is anybody interested?
