My work Fedora 17 64bit box gangs without reason, and I can't track down issue causing it! When I reboot into Windows 7 32bit it works for days without any hangs. This is a company PC so IT installed Windows 7, but I don't use it, that is why I installed Fedora and use it as my primary desktop. I'm not some guru sysadmin, but I'm not a newbie, as I have been using Linux over 10 years as my primary desktop and have few private servers that I maintain, I have troubleshooted and fixed numerous issues with mine and friends machines. My desktop works perfectly for hours, sometime for days, but after some time (usually 1-2 days) it just freezes. It doesn't matter how many free memory I have, which apps I'm runnig or which desktop I'm using. I tried leaving just desktop running with no apps, still freezes, changed desktops, kde - hangs, gnome 3 - hangs, mate - gangs, tried leaving multiple apps doing something, still hangs. I ran memory test utils, memory is working ok. These gangs are driving me nuts! Is anybody having unexplained hangs with Fedora 16 and 17 64bit? Could it be some 64bit issue because Windows is 32bit and it works? How can I troubleshoot what is causing hangs of my machine?
