Memory error in 2.4.19-pre9-ac3

Memory error in 2.4.19-pre9-ac3

Post by Chris Ranki » Tue, 11 Jun 2002 07:30:06



Hi,

I am running 2.4.19-pre9-ac3 on a dual PIII (SMP, 1.25 GB memory,
devfs, ext3, ALSA-CVS, lm-sensors-2.6.3) and I am getting memory
errors after a few days of uptime. This error has happened after only
4 days, for example. I have managed to obtain "SysRq-M" output before
the box had a chance to oops or crash, but I don't know how useful
this might be. Does anyone have any other suggestions for tracking
this problem down? I am already compiling with CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM.

Cheers,
Chris
