oops, signal 11

2001-01-20 Thread mkloppstech
I know that signal 11 with gcc is a sign of bad hardware; however it strikes me that I don't get random oopses - a whole bunch of them is appended. I used 2.4.0 with alsa, kmp3player running and an endless loop compiling the kernel. Mirko Kloppstech ksymoops 2.3.7 on i686 2.4.0. Options

Sorry, but it seems to be hardware. More conservative memory settings let the system live longer, but after some time the same errors occur. Now the oopses seem to be just random oopses. Mirko Kloppstech, please cc to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ksymoops 2.3.7 on i686 2.4.0. Options used -V

matroxfb

2001-01-19 Thread mkloppstech
I have a Matrox G450 and Kernel 2.4.0. Vesafb works fine, however not matroxfb. First, matroxfb.o does not exist. Any other module in the matrox directory doesn't do anything. strace fbset -s returns -ENOSYS for /dev/fb0, which exists. Loading matroxfb_base.o crashes the computer immediately.

The EXT2-fs errors I recently reported for test11 seem to be gone with test12-pre5. At least I couldn't reproduce the error, neither with overcommit_memory turned on nor off; maybe the error was due to turning on write cache of my hard disk. The error was a wrong reading of directory lengths and
