Hi !

This is my first post; I'm just a simple LINUX user since a long time 
('96) that have bought a new notebook last weekend and am having lot 
of hangs while trying to run LINUX.

The distribution that I installed is Red Hat 7.2. with default 
kernel. (Later, I made a test compiling in another machine 2.4.16 
with minimal settings and optimized for AMD, but the results were the 
same while trying this newer kernel in the notebook).

The problem is that after a couple of minutes of use it starts to 
dump kernel messages, and it ends freezing completely. Almost all the 
time I ran in init 1 mode (single user).

If someone needs more information I'll send it.

The notebook is a Compaq Presario 701LA (700 series) with 256 Mb RAM 
and an Ext3 partition of 4Gb with a 100Mb swap partition.

*** If someone can help me please CC to jcarminati@yahoo.com as I'm 
not subscribed to this list ***. 

Thanks !

P.S.: The notebook works fine under Windows XP, just to discard a HW 
failure.

Hi Jonny,

The notebook is a Compaq Presario 701LA (700 series). It is a notebook
for the Latin American market, you can find more technical information
regarding this notebook at: (in spanish)

http://www.compaq.com.ar/hogar/prod_pres_701.html

Almost all the time I ran in console mode my tests, no graphic mode as
it freeze very soon the kernel after booting.

Thanks,
Jorge Carminati.

P.S.: Please CC for any answer.

One strange thing that I want to share with all of you is that I
installed two times Red Hat in this notebook during this week, and no
freeze was suffered during the whole installation process, which is a
process that as you know requires almost an hour to complete.

I´m just asking why the kernel doesn´t freeze during the installation
process (which it is supposed to run Linux I suspect :) ) and just
after booting and typing some commands in init 1 mode, it freezes;
quite strange. 

I have downloaded memtest86 v.2.8, and will test tonight.

Thanks for all the help.
Jorge Carminati.

Hi!

Well, I have some news regarding my case. 

Brief for the impatient: IMHO it's a kernel bug.

7pm: I arrived home from work; as suggested by Alan I ran memtest86
(v.2.8). I let it make two passes as to have a first impression. NO
memory error was found. It took ~24 minutes for each pass (240 Mb total
(256Mb - 16Mb used for video card)). Meanwhile I was compiling in my
Mandrake workstation a kernel optimized for i386 as suggested by
François Cami.

7.50pm: I spent a couple of minutes repairing with fsck my ext3
partition; had a lot of freezes the previous day.

8pm: I ftped the kernel to the notebook (first attempt failed; kernel
froze again (Red Hat's default kernel) second attempt was ok). Rebooted
and logged in in init 1. I typed some commands, and later started X
Window, no freeze. Next I launched lot of applications, just to try a
very basic memory stress. I started to enjoy Linux in my notebook.
After an uptime of 1:40 hour I decided to switch to the next kernel
optimized version: i486.

9.40pm: Booted i486 kernel. Made some basic tests, played with XFree86,
while at the same time for first time I was compiling a newer kernel
using this notebook (using Red Hat's 7.2 default gcc, etc). This newer
kernel was optimized for 586/K5. Rebooted after an uptime of 30 min
without a freeze.

10:15pm: Played a lot with this new kernel for almost 1:30 hour, no
freeze suffered. 

Last thing I did was to compile again a newer kernel for the next cpu
type (I think it´s named "Pentium Standard" or something similar). I´ll
test probably on saturday this kernel as I went to sleep.

In all the cases the compiled kernel had set exactly the same options,
**just changed the cpu optimization type**. Kernel version 2.4.16.

I was thinking, as suggested by Alan, to ran memtest86 all night long,
but as didn't suffered in 4 hours a freeze, I discarded this idea.


Conclusion: IMHO it´s a kernel bug. The same .config optimized for AMD
freezes, and Red Hat's default kernel does the same. Luckily for my
investment it´s not a memory bug.

I'll investigate when this bug is introduced playing with the cpu
optimization setting. I'll post my results probably next monday. 

If anyone has any kind of suggestion or want me to test something in
particular please let me know.
