| |
Both my computers running 1.3.90 crashed overnight; not completely dead, in that they were pingable and if one telnetted to them the TCP handshake would be completed, but no data sent.
When I came in, the consoles of both machines were full of messages like 'Can't get a page' and ARP complaining about being unable to allocate memory.
After rebooting I examined the logs; nothing except one complaint from ftpd that it couldn't allocate any memory, followed by nothing until I rebooted. It seems to be the case that they completely ran out of free memory. Both had in excess of 50Mb of swap and weren't running anything big enough to account for this.
