Hello,
I recently try to recompile my kernel, and it gives me an error saying
'clock shrew detected, your build may be incomplete'. I was wondering if
anyone else came across this, or knows what it means.
In fact ANYTHING I run though gcc from hello world programs to the kernel
it gives me this error message.
I read though the gcc and kernel documents and haven't seen any mention of
what this error means, what is a clock shrew anyways, something to do with
the processor is my guess. Anyway I tried differant things for other errors
mentioned in the docs and I still get the error.
I don't think it is (to) harmful, I been using the kernel and some program in
which I got those errors for a couple of weeks now and they have been very
stable and run prefect, so it's not that big of a deal, I was just wondering
if anyone knew what this meant.
The set up is a AMD K6 300, 32 megsSdram, 45 megs swap
Suse dis 5.3, kernel 2.0.35, gcc version 2.7.2.1
The processer is not overclocked, the memory timeings are real gentle, and
every other settings for the bios to the kernel is as low key as I could get
them. If this computer was any more conseritive you would have to slap a
suit on it and call it a republican :)
The only thing that conserns me about this, is that it pops up atleast 100-150
times when I try to (re)compile something, so it must be important on some
level.
If you know what this error is caused by and have the time I would
apceate if you could drop a note to the mailing list:
