In this case, I suspect qmailadmin. I have seen it barf in similar circumstances where upgrading the OS causes it to get upset about something no longer being what it expects. As for your system crashes, thats something else. Have a look at the handbook about creating a debug kernel and what info to provide with respect to crash dumps. ---Mike At 01:43 AM 27/01/2004, Stanislav Grozev wrote: >On Tue, Jan 27, 2004 at 01:58:44AM -0500, Marina Brown wrote: > > The answer seems to be in your dmesg. > > > > pid 28555 (qmailadmin), uid 89: exited on signal 11 > > > > ...that means you have bad ram in your new computer.
