Title:
  When having mounted a nfs-share and the connection breaks parts of the
  system freezes

Status in “util-linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  This bug has been expierenced on Kubuntu Jaunty.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Mount a nfs share
  2. Disconnect network or the device having the shared resource

  Results:
  - KDE Plasma freezes (while some systemtray icons remain accessible)
  - manually unmounting the nfs-share results in a freeze of "umount"
  - Shutting down the system results in a total system freeze
  - Restarting HAL/DBUS etc has no effect

  Expected result:
  - unmount the disconnected share automatically
  - don't let broken connections to remote shares affect the systems stability
