I had some lockup trouble at one point, but that was because a power cable had fallen into a CPU fan. this is 4.2-R, btw. -- coleman Thus spoke Christophe Prévotaux <c.prevotaux@hexanet.fr>, and it was proclaimed: > Yes I tried telnet it is not working > plus all telnet session previously opened > are frozen > > On Wed, 27 Mar 2002 11:50:46 -0600 > mikea <mikea@mikea.ath.cx> wrote: > > > On Wed, Mar 27, 2002 at 06:45:49PM +0100, Christophe Prévotaux wrote: > > > I have a similar problem with a ASUS CUV4X-DLS > > > Dual CPU motherboard it is using VIA CHIPSET > > > as well and I have lockups , the system > > > freezes but I am still able to ping the machine > > > this is very strange , however nothing else works > > > > > > I have no problems running these machine in single > > > CPU mode but when I run SMP it does have freezing > > > problems > > > > > > On Tue, 26 Mar 2002 18:28:04 +0100 > > > Per olof Ljungmark <peo@intersonic.se> wrote: > > > > > > > I have been running a dual processor machine for about three months.
