* Package name : mcelog Version : 0.3 Upstream Author : Andi Kleen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : ftp://ftp.x86-64.org/pub/linux/tools/mcelog * License : GPL v2 Description : tool to collect and decode Machine Check Exception on x86-64 machines >From the control file: Package: mcelog Architecture: i386 amd64 Description: tool to collect and decode Machine Check Exception on x86-64 machines Starting with version 2.6.4, the Linux kernel no longer decodes and logs Machine Check Exception events to the kernel log. . Instead, the MCE data is kept in a buffer which can be read from userpace via the /dev/mcelog device node. . You need this tool to collect and decode those events; it will log the decoded MCE events into /var/log/mcelog. The package is of no use (AFAIK) on non-x86{,-64} machines, thus the Arch: line. I have a package ready, I should upload it soon.
