I was able to debug and found the problem in 'df'. I just tried the command 'df .' on a folder containing 5 files. I ran it with strace and they have a whole lot of different code flow. Tge older version calls a lot of stat64 and hangs with stale NFS lock (NFS mounted disk). Buggy version (just hangs doing nothing): df (fileutils) 4.1.9 on kernel 2.4 working version: df (coreutils) 5.2.1 on kernel 2.6 The issue is not with emacs! -dhruva On Wed, Mar 12, 2008 at 6:07 PM, dhruva wrote: > Hi > > > On Wed, Mar 12, 2008 at 6:05 PM, dhruva wrote: > > Hello, > > > > > A question on debugging: > > How do I send a control-c to gdb when I am debugging emacs on > > GNU/Linux?
