Hi!
> Unknown Interrupt
This is the same phenomenon I described. But I have a dual Pentium
board (GA586DX). So I think, that could be a general problem - not
only GA586DX :-)
After "Unknown Interrup" CPU1 hangs, no more interrupts are counted
in /proc/interrupts for it.
Some seconds later the timer interrupt of CPU0 hangs, too. And a
while later it hangs completely.
Here you can see, that CPU1 is frozen. In normal case the values of
the respective interrupt counters are nearly equal ...
CPU0 CPU1
0: 21752 16826 IO-APIC-edge timer
1: 437 289 IO-APIC-edge keyboard
2: 0 0 XT-PIC cascade
5: 2 0 IO-APIC-edge soundblaster
12: 1953 950 IO-APIC-edge PS/2 Mouse
13: 1 0 XT-PIC fpu
19: 7476 6747 IO-APIC-level aic7xxx
NMI: 0
ERR: 0
Some seconds or minutes later you can see, that the the
timer interrupt for CPU0 "hangs", too. The other values are
increased:
CPU0 CPU1
0: 21752 16826 IO-APIC-edge timer
1: 664 289 IO-APIC-edge keyboard
2: 0 0 XT-PIC cascade
5: 2 0 IO-APIC-edge soundblaster
12: 1953 950 IO-APIC-edge PS/2 Mouse
13: 1 0 XT-PIC fpu
19: 7517 6747 IO-APIC-level aic7xxx
NMI: 0
ERR: 0
Ther are less problems if I use a "minimal" kernel that includes only
that things I really need. So I avoid from using modules if possible
- it helps !! May be there is a problem with modules and SMP.
It finaly crashes if I unload the the HiSax module for my
Teles 16.1c if there is higher load on the machine :-(

The box said "Requires Win95, NT, or better," and so I installed Linux.
