Message-ID: <20031021155337.GF2617@rdlg.net> Mail-Followup-To: Linux-Kernel Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg=pgp-sha1; protocol="application/pgp-signature"; boundary="mrJd9p1Ce66CJMxE" Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.4i Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org --mrJd9p1Ce66CJMxE Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline I'm running a dual-athalon system. When I compiled the 2.6.0-test8 kernel I enabled HIGHMEM for 4 Gigs as I'm at 1.5G now and planning on purchasing an additional 512Meg DIMM next weekend (yeah, should have with the 1.5Gig). At any rate the box comes up just fine and runs for a while but once the memory is in use for a few hours and seems to exceed 220+ Megs about any command I execute will Segfault and the kernel has panic'd twice (couldn't read the whole oops). I backed out the HIGHMEM and left it at 1.5Gigs and it seems to be running fine again. I poked around the archives and couldn't find anything in particular related to this. Anyone seen anything similar, known bug I've missed? Robert :wq! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Robert L.
