process hang

I'm running mgetty with Linux 2.0.33 and a 16 port RocketPort card.
After a while of working fine -- the tail-end modems stop answering.
I do a ps auxwl and the mgettys for those ports have a D status whith
a description of add_timer.  These processes can't be killed.  I have
to reboot to get things working again.  What do I need to do?

Thanks,
