Constant crashes in unstable
I have been having so many crashes in my
debian/unstable box (CPU: AMD
Athlon(tm) XP 1900+ -- 2.6.16-1-486 #2 Tue Apr 25
20:33:31 UTC 2006
i686 GNU/Linux) lately. The majority of the crashes
are happening when
I am running some sort of video processing. For
example, when I dump
my digital video (DV) from my camcorder using the kino
and then choose
export to DVD, it crashes as soon as the *.mp2 and
*.mpv files
creations are complete. The process that combines this
two files into
mpeg crushing immediately. I have the strace output
file for this and
will enclose some portion of it at the end of this
post. The others
that crashes are when I use "dr_exec transcode ..." to
convert to xvid
and/or dvix. When using mencoder to the convert to
xvid, it crashes
too. Couple of times when mplayer was running (dvd
watching), it
crashed when I was trying to fast-forward. One thing I
notice when the
crash happens is that the CPU is 99% utilized. Since
the crashes are
freezing the system, I can not do anything but push on
the power
button. Once I was also running the "convert" command
in a script to
resize about 100+ pictures, it crushed somewhere in
the middle as
well.
I have been running debian/unstable in this machine
from the day one
(never contaminated with windoze) and I used to use
kino, transcode,
mplayer and others without any issues at all. I used
to run kino to
create my home videos and then use use
transcode/dvdrip to convert
some of them to divx / xvid and resize many many
pictures with convert
with a script. They all used to be perfect. I don't
know what changed
now. I reinstalled the system more than 5-6 times in
the past 3 weeks
(testing and/or ubstable) and each time, the system
still crashes.
Thank you in advance.
