From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.2.1) Gecko/20010901 Description of problem: I am using RH7.2 (kernel 2.4.9-21, glibc 2.2.4-19.3, i386 packages), and after updating kernel form 2.4.9-13 to 2.4.9-21, jdk1.3.1 crashes. The output is below, I don't make an attachment, because there isn't a core dump or something. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Execute a graphical application like the demos bundled with jdk1.3.1 2.From command line type "java -version" 3.That's it. Actual Results: "Another exception has been detected while we were handling last error. Dumping information about last error: Error report file = (N/A) PC = 0x0x402690e8 Signal = 11 Function Name = (N/A) Library Name = (N/A) Please check error report file for further information, if there is any. Good bye." Expected Results: Just the version info of JVM. Additional info: I know that glibc2.2 and jdk have some problems, but I guess this is a bug in kernel. Before updating, there wasn't such a problem, and I made three fresh installs and almost proved that this problem comes with the new kernel. My computer is P2-400 with 256 mb of ram, 512 mb swap, RH 7.2 with official updates. I hope you people have enough time and interest to solve this bug.
