Package: memtest86+, memtest86
Version: 5.01-3.1, 4.3.7-3+b1
Severity: important

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
The memory testing hangs just after starting on Test 2 progress from 20 
to 40 percent and on all hardware seems, in my case that is Intel 
i7-5600U and AMD A8-6500.


memtest86+ versions from Debian 10,9,8,7 work correctly.

Hi, I reproduced the similar issue many times and should be solved in 
memtest86+ 5.31b+dfsg-1, can you confirm using the new version that is 
now in experimental?


Yes, version 5.31b+dfsg-1 fine works on both my problem hardware. And 
thanks, I have placed that already in my local repository.


About memtest86 package I suppose it is no longer supported because 
version 5 and newer are proprietary and there is no new work upstream 
on version 4 for 8 years if I'm not mistaken, memtest86+ (its fork) 
have low support upstream but seems still alive and I invested some 
time for its debian package.


Open a unique bug (this) for both I think is wrong as they are 
"different".


OK

I don't mark as fixed (about memtest86+) for now as the issues that 
cause freeze on version in stable/testing/unstable should be multiple, 
newer upstream version and additional patches fixes different issues 
with newer gcc and newer hardware but I'm not sure that solves all cases.


OK
