Hello all,
I seem to have a little problem with my fc4 for sometime now. The system
runs good for sometime but when under heavy load ( couple of browser windows
in one desktop, xmms in another etc.), it crashes. Mouse stops responding,
wireless fails and refuses to reactivate etc. Its renderred completely
useless! I initially presumsed it was the Gnome crashing but i have been
using kde for sometime and the problem persists.
Any ideas ?
Run memtest86 (www.memtest86.com) and see if your memory is failing. It
could be high enough up that it takes a few programs getting loaded for
you to hit that point.
I think there is also a package to add it to the boot menu. I have not
tried that though.
Memetest86 will require a reboot, but since you are crashing anyways...
