So what are you suggesting here? That I should change
my 4GB of Memory module 512Mb PC3200 ECC Reg. Kingston
"D" ??? Nooooooo!

Look SuSE 9.1 worked fine! I think it is a Fedora
problem and not a hardware problem! If it was a
Hardware problem neither SUSE nor any other 
(Linux distro) would be able to work properly! Since
one is found which works fine then I think it is a
FEDORA issue! My question in that list just wanted 
to check out if there is any upgrade or patch which 
handles such problems!

So is there anything like that?
