[gentoo-user] Testing memory
Hi All, Does any of the gentoo packages contain tools or other ways to test the memory. I have had problems compiling some of the larger packages (bug 20600) and I would like to verify that at least the memory is working as it's supposed to.

The memtest86 was just what I needed. The memory was not the problem but running the test caused the cpu temperature to rice to ~60 C (140 F) after only 7 minutes of testing. So it seems that my problem is overheating. Jussi Sirpoma -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
