After nearly a week of no freezes using only one core I tried switching the second core back on. Froze up within minutes. Turned off second core and now back to no freezes. No appreciable difference in performance between one or two cores - this shouldn't be, surely?
alcCapone - I didn't turn off the processor core by using maxcpu option but via the bios. This effectively turns the hardware into a single core machine. The op system will then see it as single core from the start. Perhaps the use of maxcpu was the reason it didn't fix it for you. When will the 2.6.30 kernel hit the repositories? I'm not proficient enough to 'jump th gun' as it were! -- Clocksource tsc unstable leads to lockups in Ubuntu Jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/355155 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
