SMP Kernel on Dell PE2850 and X causes crash - FC5 Test 3 - Update

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have upgraded to kernel version 2.6.15-1.991 and have the same
results. Run the SMP kernel and go to run level 5 and the processor
utilization goes through the roof.

Any suggestions?

TIA
Charlie
