Debian AMD64 freeze !
Dear maintainers,
somebody wrote about Debian AMD64 complete freeze. Yes, I can confirm this
behaviour !
This is what I watched:
During normal working, everything froze: mouse, keyboard, window, everything.
Even, when I watched a movie, this happened twice. This behaviour is similar
to BUG#379480.
But what is more important: This behaviour is on my 32-bit-machine, too !
And both machines do have differnent hardware:
32-bit computer with AMD Athlon XP and Nvidia-Card, the
64-bit computer with AMD64 Turion and ATI-Card !
But both use kernel 2.6.18 ! On 32-bit the Debian-original-kernel, on 64-Bit a
selfcompiled out of the Debian-sources.
O.k., I tested RAM on both = o.k.
I checked the logs, and I discovered this:
Oct 28 19:45:29 protheus2 kernel: dbus-launch[2857]: segfault at
0000000000000000 rip 00002ba3403ed590 rsp 00007fff6aa4d188 error 4
Maybe this is the reason, although these messages appear on kernel 2.6.17,
too. On 2.6.17 everything went fine.
So, as both machines behave the same, I suppose a kernel problem.
And last but not least, another hint: The machines do freeze everytime,
whenever no one worked on it, so, when there were no keyboard or other input.
I hope, my little desription will help to find the bug.
Best regards
Hans
P.S. This mail is related to i386, too.
