I have no stability issues with the old debian 2.6.31.6 kernel. I have run the memtest86 before with no issues, I will run it over night tonight, I had considered this. I've run a few newer kernels on this machine but I was trying some new code from debain testing and the 2.6.36rc5 kernel was the first that started the filesystem errors: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=599118 There is another different panic attached: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=5;filename=kern.log;att=1;bug=599118 The kernel before that was 2.6.34-1 (again a debian release) which was stable except for the intel graphics driver but that's another problem and I'm not alone there... In fact it was the graphics driver that was my reason for running the memory test, that is somewhat improved do to a patch but I get these filesystem panics before the graphics driver dies now... :( I'll do some memory testing. Will everyone be OK with screen shots if the memory test is OK and I capture some more. -- Thanks, M -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
