From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i586; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20030225 Description of problem: Since installing shrike a week ago I have experoienced hard lockups 2-8 times a day. Occasionally it is an oops, but more commonly a hard lock with no input possible (and the system locked solid) -2.4.20-9 I have tried -2.4.20-9 2.4.20.54 as well as the standard -8 kernel Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.4.20-9, 2.4.20-8,2.4.20-54 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have the computer on 2. 3. Actual Results: Hard lock after a period of time which varies, sometimes immediate, sometimes after a few hours Expected Results: no lock Additional info:
This bug is not very descriptive. It would be a safe assumption that RHL9 is not locking most machines out there (else it would have made CNN!) A brief description of the contents of your computer would be helpful. You should include _at the very least_ the following: 1) Summary of your hardware configuration. 2) The output of "dmesg" after booting up. 3) The output of "lsmod" after booting up. 4) The contents of /proc/pci.

unfortionatly in your custom compile you disabled CONFIG_KALLSYMS (which is used to automatically resolve function names to those hex addresses)
Apologies - in the end this turned out to be a fan that worked when it felt like it. Since I got a new fan everything is fine again, just co-incidence in timing
