Re: Occasional wedging?

I recently wrote, here, about my Dreamcast wedging.

I think it happened again, but this time the shell loop eventually ran
and unwedged it.

The log timestamps run

2015-08-17 17:27:29.48

2015-08-17 18:43:08.72
2015-08-17 18:43:08.72

(and the hour-long gap was trying to compile the .so for a file that
takes only some four or five minutes to build to .o or .po, so I think
that doesn't explain it).

The console shows

17 Aug 18:09:56 ntpdate[5756]: step time server 10.0.1.1 offset 1.797710 =
sec
17 Aug 19:10:01 ntpdate[25188]: step time server 10.0.1.1 offset 1.808600=

17 Aug 20:10:07 ntpdate[28926]: step time server 10.0.1.1 offset 1.803881=

17 Aug 21:10:15 ntpdate[9339]: step time server 10.0.1.1 offset 1.807118 =

17 Aug 22:30:01 ntpdate[5328]: step time server 10.0.1.1 offset 2.396639 =

17 Aug 23:30:10 ntpdate[25779]: step time server 10.0.1.1 offset 1.801783=
 sec
18 Aug 00:30:17 ntpdate[25341]: step time server 10.0.1.1 offset 1.804706=
 sec

so it looks as though something wedged shortly after 17:30, but ntpdate
eventually ran, around 20 minutes late, and unwedged it.

Now I'm even more puzzled.
