Hi guys,
I'm sadly experiencing a lot of freezes in my LM 8.1 box. I just hope I
won't have to give up saying that "Linux does not hang" to my buddies,
but right now it's kind of difficult. I'm having daily hang-ups.
Here goes a quick summary of my system :
Linux Mandrake 8.1, using ext3, on
8.1 was terrible for me and would hang all the time, i think my longest uptime
was a little under a day !! 8.2 rocks though, much much more stable, at least
for me, much much quicker too!!

on the other hand, it might be nice to know what happens when you are "froze"
what actions do you take to shut down? and what is the results of
ctrl+alt+f2? or ctrl+alt+Backspace? might also be related to the IRQ, and
maybe the irq for USB (since the default kernal in 8.0 handles USB a little

Hi !
[I know my story is related to the 8.2 and 8.1, but it will perhaps help
you...]
I experienced EXACTLY the same thing, with my Mdk 8.2 just installed.
Hey all,
well let me put few cents on top. I do have dual Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU
1.70GHz stepping 02 DELL machine with 1G of memory, and I do experience
the same random freezings like the "AMD" users using Mandrake 8.1 kernel:

Well, I'm currently trying the suggestion Civileme gave (to add append="
mem=nopentium" to the lilo entries). The only reference I found to that
option was in the BootPromptH2:

The `mem=' Argument
This argument has two purposes: The original purpose was to specify the

I've had one other cause of a "lockup" and I mean total no ssh nothing.
It' however was on a Mandrake 7.2 box an RH 7.1 and a Mandrake 8.1 ...
what did they have in common. For me. Netscape 6.2 Seems it has a
runaway jvm. One box pre-lockup had over 35 jvms started even though

Well, as a final update, mem=nopentium did the trick for me. The system has been
