I reinstalled my gentoo from scratch, using sane optimization flags (-O2 -pipe -march=athlon-xp). Rebuilt everything. I'm also using ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86", to avoid unstable packages. My system is an Athlon XP 1800+, Soyo DRAGON Plus! Motherboard, 256mb DDR, with a Realtek ethernet nic (eth1, local), onboard (via chipset) nic (using dhcpd to cable modem), and a GeForce 2 MX-400 video card. Kernel is 2.4.19-gentoo-r10, with no weird options. Just a plain kernel for a desktop system. No GrSecurity. I activated the VIA bug workaround, if that's the strangest thing I turned on.
Still.. haven't been able to finish compile qt. Everytime, in the middle of the compile, I get a nice Oops, and then the kernel panics. The process causing the panic varies. Sometimes python, sometimes scheduler, sometimes the idle process. So, not a program's issue, happens at random, and it's easy to reproduce. If I just emerge something big, it WILL crash! This is not a hardware issue. I've run Linux on this same machine (besides Windows XP) for almost a year. Used Debian and Slackware, and they both worked fine. It isn't, or at least shouldn't be hardware. Please, can someone enlighten me on this one? I'm almost giving up on Gentoo, because I can't get the system stable enough for me to use. Ahh.. it's Gentoo 1.4rc2. Thanks, people. -- Bruno Lustosa, aka Lofofora | Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Network Administrator/Web Programmer | ICQ UIN: 1406477 Rio de Janeiro - Brazil |
