Could you check in which kernel routine the process is blocked? (e.g. using ps -Ao pid,wchan)
Running 'ps -Ao pid,wchan' shows that all the processes in uninterruptible sleep are in the do_exit routine.
Because the process is already gone, I can't strace or gdb it.
What do you mean 'the process is already gone'? Could it be that ptrace doesn't work because the Wine server has already attached to that client process?
I am unable to attach to it with gdb either. I get the error:
Attaching to program: /opt/notes5/wine/bin/wine, Pid 22018
ptrace: Operation not permitted.
Steve, is VFAT also involved in your case?
Only ext2 here.
