    SubjectRe: 2.1.95: freezes persist
     # 	When I boot 2.1.95, my system runs for about five minutes
    # and then locks up cold. It is not pingable, and there is absolutely
    # no response to anything I try to do from the keyboard. It is completely
    # frozen, just like in 2.1.93 and 2.1.94.

    Yep, me too, sorta.

    my informal tests:

    2.1.94 - I ran a compile of the kernel in an endless loop with absolutely
    no problems. For hours. But someplace between one and two hours after I
    stopped it (and the machine was idle) it 'sorta' locked up.

    Alt-sysRq worked fine. I could change VC's. Pings were happy. But I
    couldn't type anything. I was able to sync, umount and reboot just fine.

    2.1.95 - I ran

    #!/bin/sh

    while :
    do
    make clean;make depend;make -j zImage
    done

    on two different trees concurrently. After about two hours (and a load
    average of 35 :) it did exactly what 2.1.94 did. alt-sysrq worked as
    expected.
