--- Comment #2 from Rafael Varela Pet <rafael.var...@gmail.com> 2009-04-13 16:50:26 --- Thank you for yor support As I said in my initial report, I've already tested it in single-user mode, so there's almost any process running. Anyway, I've used the command "lsof /proc/acpi/events" to be sure that anybody was using /proc/acpi/event, and it didn't show anything, as expected. While trying this, I tried a slight variation on the test: After enabling silent mode, instead of pushing the "Enter" key several times, I waited for a while. Nothing happened, so it seemed that it wasn't going to crash. I entered the "sync" command and it crashed again, but this time it didn't reboot and i could see some kernel messages which said something like this: CPU0: Machine Check Exception RIP !INEXACT! 10: <ffffffff80429e0e> (_spin_lock .... TSC 1e6962ba7c This is not a software problem! Run through mcelog --ascii to decode and .... HARDWARE ERROR CPU1: Machine Check Exception: TSC 1e6962becc Kernel panic - not syncing: Machine check As you can see it says that is not a software problem, but this is a dual-boot machine and it does not crash while running Windows XP. Also, it does not crash while waiting in the GRUB bootloader menu (and I cannot activate silent mode either) I'll install mcelog to give you the information suggested by the kernel messages -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: High Quality Requirements in a Collaborative Environment.
