For somewhere between 3 days and a week I have been rising to find
that /home has become readonly overnight.

Basically I have to shut down X, manually kill all processes
accessing /home and then run

umount /home
mount /home

which fixes it until tomorrow morning.

I also tried mount /home -o remount,rw 

but was told that /dev/hdb1 was readonly - but it has the same
permissions as /dev/hda1.

Any clues as to where to from here? I cannot even seem to isolate what
time this is happening.
