I got the Slackware 3.0.0 release and started my system using a
precomiled 1.2.13 kernel. I compiled kernel 1.3.40 for use, but there
are several programs (i.e., Netscape, all versions) that output
"Segmentation Fault" when they are run. dmesg shows:

This is on a Pentium/90 with Intel Triton chipset, 8MB RAM, 3 PCI slots,
Diamond Stealth 64 DRAM PCI, SMC EtherPower PCI. Does anyone know
why this happens? When I reload my 1.2.13 kernels, that problem
disappears.
Also, in all kernels I have run (1.2.13 and 1.3.40) on this Pentium, I get
a continual message in /var/log/messages about every 5 minutes:
Nov 14 18:50:18 engr109 inetd[39]: /usr/sbin/nmbd: exit status 0x1
Nov 14 18:50:20 engr109 last message repeated 2 times
There is no /usr/sbin/nmbd and I have never heard of it. Do you guys
know what causes this?
