| |
I'm running Red Hat 7.3 with their stock 2.4.18-3 kernel on an IBM T30. Once every few hours X locks up for 5-10 seconds while the disk grinds. If I type in an Xterm the characters are not echoed until the disk grinding stops. Then they all come out in a bunch and life is back to normal.
I asked about this on kernelnewbies but the only response was something regarding some kind of change to the 'elevator code' but they didn't know of a solution.
I would like very much for this behavior to go away as it is extremely annoying. If there is a patch please let me know where I can get it.
Thanks, Mike
