[linux-audio-user] Dead tasks that won't die with 2.6.10-rc3-mm1-V0.7.33-03

Hi

I'm seeing a bizarre issue that I've never seen before. Connecting MIDI
    source/sinks in QJackCtl, sometimes QJackCtl hangs. Badly.

After a kill -9, QJackCtl won't die;

16101 tty1 DL 0:03 \_ qjackctl
16107 tty1 Z 0:00 | \_ [qjackctl] <defunct>
16109 ? Z 0:00 | \_ [jackd] <defunct>

I've upgraded my QJackctl to 0.2.14, but still the problem persists.

I'm not suggesting for a minute that this is QJackCtl's fault however:
since this is such a bizarre fault, I though I'd like to check on this
list that this really is a kernel bug :)

thanks
Rob

PS. Suggestions for kernels known to work well for multi-channel audio
and MIDI work welcome - and no, I'm sticking with Gentoo for now.
