HI guys,
I finally got some type of crash dump from my system. I have tried
Ubuntu variations of the 2.6.35, 2.6.36, and 2.6.37 kernels, all of
which have crashed on me.
Finally, 2.6.37 gave me a trace on the console screen. I had to copy it
down by hand, so don't take it too literally.
Here is the data. I intentionally left out all of the hex addresses in
the call trace. It seems pretty obvious to me that something is amiss
in the hardware. I wonder if my heat syncs are full of dust. That will
be the first thing I check.
Any helpful advice would be most appreciated.
Thanks!
Andy
