Sorry to bother everyone here, but I have been getting a lot of
segmentation faults lately and I was wondering what causes them. I think I
have heard on this list before that it is causes by bad memory chips and
just wanted to verify this.
Also have been getting general protection faults. I thought that
only happened in Windoze....:). Anyway could that also be caused by memory
faults? I have been running Debian since April of this year and this has
only been happening in the last week or so.
Here is my kernal log with the gpf's. And is it random:
