| |
Running an FP exception using user-space application (the runtime system for the Erlang programming language in my case) on an Athlon64 with a 32-bit 2.6.17-rc3 kernel quickly results in a complete system hang: mouse is dead, keyboard is dead, the network doesn't reply to pings. Had to reboot via the power switch to get the machine back.
This happended twice in a row. With 2.6.17-rc2 things work fine like they always have before.
Just FYI. I'll try to debug this this weekend if noone beats me to it.
