Hi, I have had problems before but now I am running Debian Linux on an SMP machine and it crashes once a week or so. It locks real hard and all I can do is press the on/off switch to get started. I suspected the memory but all the tests I know of do not seem to indicate the problem is with the

I'm wonder, and perhap some you linux buffs could help. HOw great is the performance gain from SMP? I have been debating this with a friend. I know linux has muli-threaded capability, but like the kernal isn't explicitly multithreaded(or is it), yeah you can compile it for multiple processors,

Linux SMP more stable in 2.1 ???

1997-04-22 Thread Philippe Troin
Is Linux with SMP more stable in 2.1 than in 2.0 ? I have random lockups under heavy load. I've tried the shed.c patches from Leonard Zubkoff on the linux-smp mailing-list without any success... If yes, which 2.1 version is ok ? Does debian (hamm) works ok with 2.1 ? Thanks for any info
