Hello, I hope I am doing this correctly per the BUG-REPORTING doc. 1. Bus error - Shortly later kernel lockup MTRR registers 2. My kernel has locked up 3 times since moving to the 2.4.x kernel. I am not excaly sure of what triggers it but it does always happen while I am actively using it. Netscape 4.77 ussally has a bus error shortly before the box will lock up, but the netscape bus error can happen and no messages will get logged or any lock up happen. The message mtrr: no MTRR for e4000000,2000000 found frequently shows up in my /var/log/message file. 3. MTRR, Invalid opernad 4. kernel version: 2.4.4 5.
