Does it still hang? Did you check your memory by memtest or some other equivalent program? Are there any badblocks on your hard drive? raju -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Should I file a > kernel bug? I do not know enough about the kernel to answer that. Sporadic crashes without an easily identifiable trigger can also be caused by a hardware problem (RAM, CPU temperature, power supply voltages, etc.) so it might be worthwhile to check that first with memtest86+ and lm-sensors. -- Regards, Florian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Computer keeps hanging
Hi! I am having problems with my machine, it keeps hanging. First I thought it was the graphics card, an ATI card using the ATI driver. I upgraded from Sarge to Etch, then switched to an Nvidia card, both with the Nvidia and ATI drivers. Today I managed to capture the crash message, by watching the syslog from a remote terminal. This is the crash message, at least the end of it (the rest got lost in the scrollback, when I tried capturing it, but I did take some photos of it with my digital camera in case there is something I need to reproduce: kernel: Stack: dbdfc000 b01f3701 d8e85be8 da7f6e60 0300 d8ca8f20 0003 0008 kernel:d8e85e54 d8e85e58 003fff8a 003fff8a kernel: Call Trace: kernel: tty_poll+0x21/0x60 do_select+0x223/0x3c7 kernel: __pollwait+0x0/0xb2 default_wake_function+0x0/0xc kernel: default_wake_function+0x0/0xc default_wake_function+0x0/0xc last message repeated 7 times kernel: default_wake_function+0x0/0xc do_sock_write+0xa3/0xaa kernel: core_sys_select+0x28a/0x2a7 convert_fxsr_to_user+0xef/0x143 kernel: save_i387+0xf4/0x106 setup_sigcontext+0x107/0x18e kernel: do_notify_resume+0x4d5/0x5be __remove_hrtimer+0x1d/0x26 kernel: hrtimer_try_to_cancel+0x38/0x3e convert_fxsr_from_user+0x15/0xd5 kernel: sys_select+0x9f/0x180 do_gettimeofday+0x19/0x9b kernel: sysenter_past_esp+0x54/0x75 kernel: Code: 00 00 20 58 8b 83 30 01 00 00 5b c3 85 c0 53 89 c3 75 18 8b 42 38 51 89 c2 c1 e8 14 81 e2 ff ff 0f 00 52 50 68 7a ab 29 b0 eb 20 <31> c0 81 3b 01 54 00 00 74 23 8b 42 38 51 89 c2 c1 e8 14 81 e2 kernel: EIP: [] tty_paranoia_check+0x1f/0x4e SS:ESP 0068:d8e85b78 I am using a stock kernel from Debian: Linux version 2.6.17-2-k7 (Debian 2.6.17-9) ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 4.1.2 20060901 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-13)) #1 SMP Wed Sep 13 17:18:46 UTC 2006 Does anyone have any ideas what the problem might be?
