Description of problem: Computer crashes at least once during start up and at random times while computer is being used. Some of these crashes occur seemingly at random. Seems to occur most often before the LUKS password request on startup. The 2.6.35.13-91.fc14.i686 version let me get to the GNOME sign-in screen and then crashed twice. Had to revert to 2.6.35.12-88.fc14.i686 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.35.13-91.fc14.i686 and 2.6.35.12-90.fc14.i686 Seems to be okay under 2.6.35.12-88.fc14.i686 How reproducible: Randomly but often Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot computer 2. Hold breath and hope the computer doesn't crash 3. Crash Actual results: Crash Expected results: Not crash Additional info: I tried to gleam any useful information from /var/log/messages but I'm not finding anything consistent.
Is this still happening with kernel-2.6.35.14-95.fc14
This is still happening with 2.6.40-4.fc15. This may be a hardware issue but it seems to be quite random. I, too, have not been able to gleam any useful information from the logs.
We really need to see an oops report to diagnose this problem.
might be worth running memtest86 overnight on it if you suspect it might be hardware.
