Anyone else faced this?
I've noticed a few freezes during emerges on my system in the last week or two. The system is currently building x11-libs/qt-webkit-4.8.4 and has had a series of freezes. Portage: sys-apps/portage-2.1.11.31 Kernel: sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-3.4.9 dmesg produced an entry which may be related: [ 8003.626681] hrtimer: interrupt took 4376464 ns I haven't looked any further into the issue as yet, as I don't have the time available. While writing this email the system froze for 47 seconds with no new kernel messages. :/ Regards, Carlos
