Right, I suspect that you just weren't quick enough that time ;-)
Could you confirm a few things for me:
- what kind of machine is this? PC, Mac, emulated? virtual machine?
etc.
- how are you running the "sleep" and "kill" commands? from X? from a
getty? from ssh?
Could you run a "sleep" as before, and this time "cat /proc/PID/status"
from another terminal and attach that.
Thanks,
Scott
