Hi,

Since my upgrade to 2.6.16, I get random system freezes :cry: Sysrq keys don't work and I need to power off. I tried noapic, nolapic, apic, lapic without success. Everything worked fine with 2.6.15.

Anyone with system freezes on 2.6.16?

Thank you

Mmmmhhhh... Interesting :? I don't have any problem with glibc 2.4 with kernel 2.6.15... I'll first rebuild my glibc against a 2.6.16 kernel and if I still get freezes, I'll downgrade to 2.3.5-r2.

Thank you

yes there are some few problems with 2.6.16 and glib 2.4.
hope will be fixed soon :)

Do you have some links about that? I'm curious to have more details :wink:

I'll try this as soon as possible.

Thank you

brot@brotkastn ~ $ emerge -pv glibc beyond-dev-sources

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild R ] sys-libs/glibc-2.4-r1 USE="glibc-omitfp nls nptl nptlonly pic userlocales -build -hardened -profile" 0 kB
[ebuild R ] sys-kernel/beyond-dev-sources-2.6.16 USE="symlink -build -doc" 0 kB [3]


And I have never ever had a system freeze. So i am pretty sure this isnt due to the glibc.

Downgrading glibc is a really bad idea :cry: It will just break your system :evil: I'm recompiling glibc-2.4 now thanks to a binary package linked against glibc-2.3 :D

Any other idea to break my box? :wink:
