| |
I'm experiencing daily hard lockups with kernel version 2.1.42 on a 100 MHz Pentium system. Unfortunately it always happens when I'm sleeping or not home, so all I get upon return is a machine frozen with a blank screen that I can't unblank. The machine is totally unresponsive to keyboard input or network traffic. Nothing in the logs, either -- the logging just stops at the point of lockup.
I must say I find this fascinating, I haven't had lockups this hard on Linux in years. :-)
Anyway, here's my .config file for the kernel I'm running. If I can get any more information I'll post that too.
(FYI, I build these kernels for multiple machines, hence all the extra SCSI and network drivers. I haven't tried it on any other machines yet however. In this particular case, the hardware is a 100 MHz Pentium with an Adaptec 2940U SCSI card, a 3c509 network card, a Trident 9660 PCI video card, and a SB16 Viba PNP sound card.)
