From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040116 Description of problem: I updated the kernel to the latest 2.4.20-30.9 after it is released. The kernel will crash on random basis depending on the load. It occurs more frequently if the machine is under heavy load. Leaving the machine running overnight will surely crash the kernel. The machine is a desktop, with httpd and folding@home running. Most of the load comes from folding@home, and desktop application such as Mozilla and OpenOffice Using older kernel 2.4.20-28.9 and 2.4.20-8 did not produce the random crashing Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.4.20-30.9 How reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. Update machine to latest kernel 2.4.20-30.9 2. Run folding@home and desktop application 3. Kernel will crash randomly Actual Results: Kernel will crash randomly Expected Results: Kernel should not crash Additional info:
