Hi,
After a few days uptime on a 2.6.19 kernel, I see this:

At which point magic sysrq doesn't work and the machine requires a hard

Hi Alan,
Is it possible to use pata_mpiix (or pata_oldpiix) with an ICH4 IDE controller

I've tried compiling both drivers into the kernel, and totally disabling
CONFIG_IDE, but it doesn't boot. dmesg doesn't indicate any detection has
taken place. The old IDE layer works

Hi,
I've had some problems with 2.6.20 (but also with earlier kernels, like
Debian's 2.6.18) where one of the users on our system, running a Java6

unresponsive, denying all remote _and_ local access to the machine.

I'm fairly sure this is already known about on SPARC64 (see David Miller's
email ""build-id" changes break sparc64"), but I just thought I'd let people
know

Hi,
I'm getting periodic oopses running KVM-33 on 2.6.23-rc1. Here is a digital
photo of the oops. Alarmingly, a lot of the time it triple faults the machine
and I don't get a chance to grab it. This time I was lucky, though.

Checked the RAM on the box? Kinda weird if you're getting VRAM corruption, I
wonder if this is due to the RAM failing at the point where the framebuffer
is mapped?
Try running memtest86 on it.

This seems to have fixed the problem. Thanks Avi.

The real question is WHY do people keep writing essays about topics that have
_already_ been exhaustively explored in other threads? If you want a better
understanding of the situation, read the archives, DON'T post another
duplicate message about the same scheduler parade.
Unless you've got
