Hello, list. I have tried everything I can think of, but still can't find an answer myself. So thought someone here might be having the same problem. I'm running Gentoo 1.4 on an Athlon XP 1800+, a Soyo DragonPlus MB, and some other miscellaneous cards.
Problem is, if I let the system running and the load comes to a high point (load avg at about 2-3), system will eventually come to a crash. I can reproduce it every time. Sometimes, there's a message from the kernel (a call to BUG(), an "Aiee! Killing interrupt handler" message and the system is frozen). I thought there might be a bug with all the patches applied to the standard gentoo kernel sources, becuase I tried lots of configurations, but they all lead to the same hanging. So, I emerge'd sys-kernel/vanilla-sources, compiled a plain kernel without any fancy options, but alas... same behaviour. I have used Linux before on this computer (Debian and Slackware), and have WinXP installed as well. Gentoo is the only one who's getting trouble with the machine, so I don't think this could be a hardware issue (wouldn't windows or the other distros hang as well?). At the moment, I'm trying recompiling glibc with different CFLAGS, as I used somewhat high optimization flags to build the majority of the system. Instead of using: CFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -m3dnow -msse -mfpmath=sse -mmmx -O3 -pipe -fforce-addr -fomit-frame-pointer -funroll-loops -frerun-cse-after-loop -frerun-loop-opt -falign-functions=4 -maccumulate-outgoing-args -ffast-math -fprefetch-loop-arrays" I'm using: CFLAGS="-mcpu=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe" Could this be the problem? -- Bruno Lustosa, aka Lofofora | Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Network Administrator/Web Programmer | ICQ UIN: 1406477 Rio de Janeiro - Brazil |
