In "le0: dropping chained buffer" mail, I wrote

The same environment I have written just before,
SS-10 + SS-2 both running 1.4_BETA, connected to the same HUB.
SS-10 exports /export/home and both machines mount it to
/automount/home with amd setup.
If I type
ls -l *
grep -i xxxx *
on NFS mounted directory where many files exist, NFS server get
stucked and saying NFS server SS-10 not responding, and SS-10
freezes. Cursor moves on X Window system, but if I type 'sync', no
response there. I can even say exitting from FVWM window manager,
and actually window seems get closed. But I did not get console
prompt. Filled by root window color and no response.
The same thing happened with 1.3.3 x 2 release.
This problem is very serious, not to mention. Could anybody advice
me how to figure out ?
