Hi,
I have recently found a problem of randomly being blocked by ssh
connection to a 64 bit CentOS 6.4 virtual machine, the dmesg shown
following error:
..........
INFO: task gnome-settings-:16976 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
"echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.

--------
Searched from Internet and found similar bug report for Fedora 19
declared the issue to a blocker. It seems to me that the bug I
encountered is the same in Fedora 19. While Fedora has a workaround
patch, I am not clear if that bug has been reported to CentOS dev and
if you have a patch as well? Please advice and update.
Thank you.
Kind regards,
