Neat. I'm linux newebie, never occurred to me to try this.
using 2.6.35.24 (??.. latest kernel)
in console: copied about 700MB from /dev/sda3 to same partition: works ok
same copy via nautilus seized up at about 500 Mb
In console after reboot: froze , then every minute spit out:
at (e.g.) 284.544011
BUG: soft lockup CPU#0 stuck for 61s [kswap0:26]
process: kswap0
pid: 26
ti: f71fa000
task: f7133f70
task.ti f71fa000
stack: (nada)
calltrace: (nada)
code: diferent each time, but can transcribe if you wish
(linux newbie question: I take it within console there's no way to copy
or capture what comes up on screen, except pen and paper?)
Can run same test on kernel 2.6.35-23 if any use.
For what it's worth: I asked about this problem a couple of times on
ubuntuforums.org: beginners
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10251738#post10251738
There was some feeling it might have to do with bad memory; but that left
problem of why
bad memory didn't cause a freeze in 2.6.35-22 but did in later versions of
kernel.
