Description of problem: I got this with the FC6 candidate kernel. This Athlon64 X2 box was mostly idle, even though it's my gateway/firewall, so there might be *some* network traffic. It was probably still running nightly cron jobs, since it was only 5 minutes past 4 am when it crashed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.18-1.2741.fc6 How reproducible: Didn't try to duplicate it, but the box is running the same kernel, so I'll let you know if I run into it again Steps to Reproduce: 1.Leave the machine alone Actual results: Attached oops picture Expected results: No oopses Additional info: Another dual-core x86_64 box (this one a Pentium D) survived the nightly cron jobs running the very same installed software, but with active use of the console (it's my main desktop).
Created attachment 137900 [details] Picture of the oops backtrace. I hope it's enough information.
grr, the unwinder ate most of the useful information by pushing it off the top of the screen. Can you boot this box with vga=1 to get 50 line mode in case it happens again. It makes it slightly less readable, but we stand a better chance of capturing wtf happened. I'll look at the unwinder to see if I can fix up some of the noise.
did this happen again more recently on current kernels ?
