I realize these lockups probably have nothing to do with Linux, but I do use primarily Linux, and only have errors reported by it, plus you people seem to usually be nice, so I'm posting this here :)
Here's the deal; my computer locks up psuedo-randomly, I think the problem occurs when I do things with high CPU/RAM usage and IO usage at the same time; here are some things that make it lock up (in order of most likely to lock up to least likely to lock up): snes9x w/ sound on blender netscape (can cause seg fault with OOPS, or lock up..) compiling (usually sig11's or OOPSes rather than lockup) program I wrote to eat CPU and do lots with RAM (NEVER locks up.. go figure) Anyway, I'm running Linux 2.2.7andrea2, but the same thing happens with the whole 2.1.x series and 2.2.x series, as for the 2.0.x series, I get hdc timeouts when I compile (hdc is my main drive), and it locks after about 5mins of use no matter what.. FreeBSD also causes panics, and Windows just *locks*.. no telling what's happening there... anyway, I'm attaching output of various files from /proc, good luck! :) Thanks, Zinx Verituse pgp key fingerprint: 9F E5 C9 74 7E B8 FF 32 9B B1 31 99 C4 00 8E 67 gpg key fingerprint: B907 8474 62E3 3432 2EBC 2197 A245 4F19 9314 0EFD (finger @bliss.penguinpowered.com for keys, when applicable..)processor : 0 vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 5 model : 6 model name : AMD-K6tm w/ multimedia extensions stepping : 1 cpu MHz : 199.599853 fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : no sep_bug : no f00f_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 1 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr mce cx8 sep mmx bogomips : 398.13
