While on my recent trip I was getting frequent errors when I started up
Ubuntu 16.04 on my laptop, a ThnkpPad X200 Tablet. Now that I'm back and
have the time I decided to run memtest86 to see if there were any memory
problems. I started it last night and noted that it was progressing.
This morning it appears hung. I'm using Memtest86 from a USB stick that
has UbuntuMATE 18.04 on it.
Here's what's on the screen:
Memtest86+ 5.01 | Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU L9600 @ 2.13GHz

Memory SPD Informations
--------------------------
(This part of the screen is blank -- no red error messages)
(The bottom line on the screen has:)
(ESC)exit (c)configuration (SP)scroll_lock (CR)scroll_unlock
The + after Memtest86, above, is red and blinking.
Other than that, the screen has not changed since before I started
typing this email. Am I correct that it is hung? If so, what is that
telling me?
I don't need to use the laptop for anything right now, so I'll leave it
in its current condition for now, in case someone wants more info.
Thanks for any advice.
Spell check humor: Thunderbird wants to change ThinkPad to Stinkpot,
with an alternate choice of Kneecapped.
