Re: kernel: APIC error on CPU0: 40(40)
This was on a Tyan S2875 - I just upgraded the BIOS to see if it fixes it. Only happens once a week to once a month. Tyan hasn't been exactly helpful... (But, I have had great luck using their motherboards). Karl Schmidt EMail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Transtronics, Inc.

Any kernel gurus know exactly what this means? Receive Illegal Vector. From what I understand it means your motherboard's apic is sending invalid io vectors to the cpu Unfortunately it means a crappy motherboard more often than hardware failure. Possibly you could look for and install a bios upgrade (since the apic is set up by the bios). If it bothers you too much, you can run without the apic with kernel parameter noapic at the cost of some speed. Ernest. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Any kernel gurus know exactly what this means? Not a kernel guru by any stretch of the imagination, but I used to see it on my 64-bit, dual core systems (nForce 4 mb) (running 32-bit Linux kernels). Also saw it on a dual-socket system socket for 370 Celeron.* With 64-bit kernels, the whole system locks up during the boot init stuff. I think it means your motherboard has a broken BIOS, usually. (APIC implemented badly.) On mine, I run with the kernel parameter noapic, which seems to do no harm. Mark Allums * Yes, I had one of the legendary Abit motherboards that did dual socket 370 Celerons before the Pentium III came out (and it wouldn't do the Pentium III, it had voltage issues.) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
