| |
One of the machines I work on at work (of all places) is a Dual PPro system (Intel Providence PR440FX motherboard). It's been running stock 2.0.36 (w/ SMP turned on) for the past couple of months w/o any trouble. A few days ago, I decided to give 2.2.x a whirl. After compiling and installing, I rebooted and everything looked fine until I ran dmesg which printed out:
vector 7 on CPU#0! unexpected IRQ vector 7 on CPU#0! (ad infentum)
When I went to look at the system (it's not in my cube), the console was a continuous stream of "unexpected IRQ vector 7 on CPU#0!". However, this error message is the only indication that there's some sort of problem; everything appears to run just fine (the response time for Bugzilla has even gone down a little bit) and 2.2.5 takes about 2/3 the time of 2.0.36 to boot.
Much thanks, Noah Romer
