Well, the local console was still responding, but after entering a single keystroke, I had to wait for about 5 mins before the next was accepted. I ended up rebooting that machine. It was not locked up as such, merely unusable and the fastest recovery was to reboot. It took about 1, maybe 2mins for it to accept the Ctrl-Alt-Del combination.
Addendum: I've just now managed to reboot that box. I noticed 7206 active processes, and whilst the box may not have been _actually_ locked up, apart from allowing me to change virtual console once, it was completely unresponsive. /Per Jessen, Zürich
