Package: linux-image-2.6.18-3-k7 Version: linux-image-2.6.18-3-k7 and linux-image-2.6.18-4-k7 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
linux-image-2.6.18-3-k7 and linux-image-2.6.18-4-k7 total system freeze after max. 10 minutes uptime Dear maintainers, strange trouble since 6 months, to be more specific: Ever since kernel 2.6.18-* hit the debian testing and unstable ftp-stores my system totally freezes right after 5 to 10 minutes uptime with *any* of the 2.6.18-*-kernel-packages. NO logfile entry is left. NO panic or such on screen. Just a 100% frozen shell and system. Until the system freezes even "top" displays a nearly 100% idle status for both cpus. Disk i/o is low as well. Overall system load is very low, still it freezes. 8/ So it is very hard for me to understand WHAT EXACTLY could be the reason for this. Even more, because linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7 (and all the ones before!) runs smoothly here for months (uptime)! 8| I decided to wait some releases of the 2.6.18-tree and let you already stressed out maintainer people do your job. However, now after 6 months have passed i tried linux-image-2.6.18-4-k7 today - and guess what happend after 8 minutes after booting - obviously the system just froze again. :/ Please give me a chance to help you find the reasons for this annoying bug - cause i would like to enjoy 2.6.18 as well. :) hardware: Tyan Tiger MPX S2466N-4M mainboard 2 x AMD Athlon MP 2600 CPUs 3ware 8506-4 SATA-RAID Just let me know please, if i can assist you with further details (dmesg, bootup logs, debug, whatever you wish..)! Thank you very much!
