Hello all,
For my dev environment, I have a Linux VM (VMware Server 2) running on a
Win7 host laptop. I have a Samba share set up so's I can use my
Win7-based editing tools.
When I go from work to home, I hibernate the laptop, after I suspend the
VM. Occasionally (read, almost every time) I forget to close some file
in some app somewhere, and when I hit suspend, the app goes catatonic
for an inordinately long time (at least it feels that way when I'm
trying to pack out, perhaps 30 seconds).
Has anyone discovered a way to break an app out of Samba shock, or avoid
having it happen in the first place, without killing processes?
Many thanks,
--
