Re: debian sarge freeze computer (solved)

[Paulo Neves <igod.pt@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

 Hi had solve this problem. I reeinstall debian with kernel 2.4 and
aparently solve my problem.
 Now everything works fine, I'm doing a 2, 3 days with high level
activity test to see if everything works fine, and until now I haven't
any problem.

 Just one question, what is normal for load average for one computer ?
 Just 3 ?

 Thanks all,

Paulo
