I wrote to the lkm before, but i have no answer about this problem, i
don't know if this is de apropiate forum to ask but i'm a bit desesperate!
----------
[1.] One line summary of the problem:
hangs on dual athlon system under heavy load.
[2.] Full description of the problem/report:
The systems hangs only under heavy load or during shutdown. It still
happens appending
noapic and mem=nopentium, removing the networking card or the ati
graphic card.
Although i can't remove the Adaptec 2100s RAID in order to boot. The
system works
fine compiled with only one CPU support. The temperature seems fine
around 55C.
[3.] Keywords (i.e., modules, networking, kernel):
with or without networking and with or without modules.
[4.] Kernel version (from /proc/version):
Linux version 2.4.19 (pau@lorien) (gcc version 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian
prerelease)) #6 SMP
It still happens under SuSE 7.3, 7.2 and 8 kernels. (2.4.16 and 2.4.18)
[5.] Output of Oops.. message (if applicable) with symbolic information

[6.] A small shell script or example program which triggers the
problem (if possible)
I'm only able fastly hang the machine using something like this:
#!/usr/bin/perl
my $a = 0;
while ($a == 0) {rand();}
It usualy returns a Segmentation Faults and the machine hangs in a few
seconds.
It can become freeze during the perl script too. The script can run
during 10 seconds to 30 minutes.

The system hangs both 1.1 and 1.4 SMP specification and with or without

The MB also can't reboot normaly, but i think it is a BIOS issue, i
should update it.
Good luck!

Does the board past memtest 3.0. The dual athlons are incredibly fussy
about their RAM. Ludicrously so in fact.
Also are you using MP rather than XP processors and do you have a 430W
or larger PSU ?

What happens when you slow the processors down? i.e. way down to 400 or
600 Mhz. Also does the board become stable if you try something like
"failsafe" values in the bios. Do you get page faults? I have a tyan
dual processor motherboard but it seems to work fine. A number of years
ago I had similar problem with the system hanging. Replacing the processor
with an intel type fixed the problem.
