How much RAM do you have? I also had a freezing problem on a machine=20 with 4 GB of RAM. As soon as I reduced the RAM to 2 GB the machine=20 became stable. I've played around with KVA_PAGES, vm.kmem_size_max and=20 could only influence the time it took to crash the machine. - Oliver --=20 | Oliver Brandmueller | Offenbacher Str. 1 | Germany D-14197 Berlin | | Fon +49-172-3130856 | Fax +49-172-3145027 | WWW: http://the.addict.de/ | | Ich bin das Internet.
