Signal 11 (SIGSEGV) from gcc usually means some kind of hardware problem. The classic example of this problem is memory board not configured with enough wait states.
However, it appears there's a new twist to this problem. I don't know if it affects anyone here. -- Raul ------- Start of forwarded message ------- Date: Mon, 5 Feb 1996 00:48:00 -0500 (EST) From: Thomas Pawlikaniec <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> X-Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Andreas Kostyrka <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc: Linux SMP mailing list <[email protected]> Subject: Re: Re[2]: is it the right CPU?

(I bought Well, it looks like you got some of those over-clocked chips sold by humm-hummm dealers that want to make big $$$ on your back. It's relatively easy to buy P5-90 and re-stamp them with some other speed, usually 100 or 120. Same for 75 -> 90 or sometimes even 100 MHz. Note: this over-clocking is supposed not to work on the latest chips from intel, where some hardware mechanism has been implemented to stop the fraud... and the 'fun' of advanced users who started doing it quite regularly lately (see comp.sys.intel newsgroup for more info...) Argue until you get REAL 120 MHZ parts. Good luck! Thomas Pawlikaniec .sig coming Real Soon Now ! ------- End of forwarded message -------
