|
||
<a href="../W/wedged.html"><i class="glossterm">wedged</i></a>, but more common at Unix/C sites. Not
|
||
generally used of people. Syn. with <a href="../L/locked-up.html"><i class="glossterm">locked up</i></a>,
|
||
<a href="../W/wedged.html"><i class="glossterm">wedged</i></a>; compare <a href="hosed.html"><i class="glossterm">hosed</i></a>. See
|
||
also <a href="hang.html"><i class="glossterm">hang</i></a>. A hung state is distinguished from
|
||
<a href="../C/crash.html"><i class="glossterm">crash</i></a>ed or <a href="../D/down.html"><i class="glossterm">down</i></a>, where the
|
||
program or system is also unusable but because it is not running rather
|
||
than because it is waiting for something. However, the recovery from both
|
||
situations is often the same. It is also distinguished from the similar
|
||
but more drastic state <a href="../W/wedged.html"><i class="glossterm">wedged</i></a> — hung software can
|
||
be woken up with easy things like interrupt keys, but wedged will need a
|
||
kill -9 or even reboot.</p></dd><div class="navfooter"><hr/><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="huff.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="../H.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="hungry-puppy.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">huff </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="../index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> hungry puppy</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
