I'm getting quite frustrated with -current. I've been running it for years and had relatively few problems. However for quite some time now I've had a problem with Hard Locks. By Hard Lock I mean that the system doesn't respond to ether traffic, the keyboard doesn't respond, the capslock, numlock, and scroll lock keys do nothing, the corresponding LEDs don't light, and ctrl/alt/del doesn't reboot the system. The only out is to hit reset. I don't think this is related to the X FP problem ( although I am running X11 ). There have been many times when I'd walk in the morning and find the system had been down for hours. As I understand the X FP problem, it is a transient that shouldn't take the system down all night.
This leads to the following questions: 1.) how likely is this a hardware problem? I've already ran <http://www.memtest86.com/> and there doesn't seem to be a memory problem. I've changed power supplies. Memory was swapped from another system. The entire system was upgraded such that the only components that are still the same are some of the hard drives. I've even taken the SCSI bus speed down to 10Mhz. All kinds of BIOS settings have been tried. The only thing left is to swap out hard drives. 2.) how can I identify the software issue if that is what it is? With the keyboard dead how can I break into the system? Attached are my boot messages and kernel configs. The current MB/CPU is a Abit BP6 with dual Celeron 466s that are NOT overclocked. Suggestions? ( Help! ) ADVthaAnksNCE
