- I think the above information is too little to give any sensible
- advice. If it happens again then please give at least:
-
- - The ll(1) info for the device file(s).
- - The fuser(1) info for the device file(s).
- - The "ps -fl" info for the process(es) listed by fuser (and preferably
- also of their parents and chlid(ren)).
-
- For more information on the "terminal" driver see modem(7) and
- termio(7).
