You don't say which versions of glibc or the kernel you're running, but if you're running stock Debian Sarge, that's a problem because of its known-buggy glibc 2.3.2. We are still using MySQL 4.0.x, but have had good luck running Debian "testing", and I expect "sid" would be good too if you don't need to run much more than a db server on this machine. I'd also use a recent kernel, though we've been running on a 2.6.13.1 kernel on a dual opteron with 6gb ram since last September without a problem, so the kernel doesn't have to be that recent. You can either manually install the later glibc's (2.3.5 or 2.3.6) from testing/sid, or just update the whole kit and kaboodle. --Pete -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
