Hi, Note - I am not very technically capable on Linux - so don't assume I know much. I am just trying to report an dhopefully get a fix for a problem.
I have run various versions of Fedora on my machine. The only version that seems anywhere near stable, i.e. machine does not hag or crash within minutes of booting is kernel 2.6.5. However, on this FC2 / 2.6.5 kernel, if I connect in using VNC (version4 client and server) - within approaximately the Linux VNC server disconnects the clients and its console either "loops" messages or shows a "fixed screen" of messages. Does this look anything like a VNC problem or should I post elsewhere? I cannot find these messages in any /var/log/* file so I have written them down and typed them in as well as I can. "Scrolling" messages Message format on the "console" [<nnnnnn>] -call console_Drivers +0x ... etc [<nnnnnn>] -do page_fault +0x ... etc [<nnnnnn>] -show trace [<nnnnnn>] -show_stack [<nnnnnn>] -show_registers [<nnnnnn>] -die +0x ... etc ..... ********* end of messages *********** "Fixed" messages Various actions were taken on the Linux machine such as using Nautilus file browser were carried out through VNC. Linux machine ran for about 5 minutes then "locked". The following messages appeared on the local Linux console. *pde = 000000 oops = 0000(#30) CPU : 0 EIP : 0060 [<00000000>] Not tainted EFLAGS : 00010202 (2.6.5-1.358) EIP is at 0x0 eax : 1acbae80 ebx:002e8fco ecx:145a8b53 edx:022320e0 esi: 00000145 edi:1cd6fbbc ebp:00000002 esp:1bf488f40 ds:007b es:007b ss:0068 Process gconfd-2 (pid:2261 threadinfo=1b488000 task=1accabb0 stack: ... lots of data ...
