Re: Lemote eeLoong 8089 mips based notebook stability issues (was: repository switch)
I have managed to reproduce some lockups, I am suspecting kernel issue.
Thermal should not be the cause: because
1. we have performed thermal test in high temperatures
2. other actions are almost safe; I have run some other heavy load
programs for a long time, no die. It seems some bugs triggered by the
compilation.
Maybe you can try to recompile the kernel with different version/configs.
we are going back to work, should be a high priority work for us to
resolve.
Thanks
