 Posted: Thu Nov 16, 2006 2:05 am Post subject: Loosing Functionality as time goes by |
 |
|
My computer boots and runs fine, until some amount of time goes by. This span of time ranges from several minutes to several days.
When the problem occurs, it seems to always be the same behavior, and an immidiate reboot solves the problem.
The problem can be defined by the following observations:
- The clock stops counting forward (the 'date' function)
- A system beep lasts for nearly 30 seconds (like when i have file completion enabled and i hit tab and multiple files match the typed in text so far)
- A super user teminal command to do a reboot will eventually work. It can take several minutes with the command "nice -20 reboot".
- The backspace key when pressed and held only deletes one character, so the repeat function is not working
A view of the system resources (gkrellm2) shows 2% CPU, 1%CPU (dual core P4) 125 procs 1 user, disk usage as normal, ehternet as normal. 494M free RAM, 1.5G free swap. It will only advance the graphic output of gkrellm2 when i mouse the mouse over the graphic. I can move the mouse anywhere on the screen, but only that action will 'enable' the output to catch up.
Is there more information I can post here that would help?

I'm confused; what does this have to do with functionality being loosed as time goes by?

The capability of the OS to continue working properly dimenshes over time. Ergo, it is loosing its capability to function properly over time.
| Code: |
$ stty -a

Since the last post (when the problem had occurred) I have rebooted, and yet again the problem has re-occurred. From the frozen clock time it shows it happened at 4:43 am.

If something gets diminished over time, wouldn't that mean it gets lost, not loosed?

Please ignore him, a**holes who think they're funny should get banned.
Your problem is usually a hardware issue, I once ran into the same problem due to heat. I would check to see what the Motherboard temp is and if it's too high, that may be the problem. However, it is likely that if you have double checked your kernel settings that you MoBo is having issues.

I've had similar problems with faulty ram, over the course of about 3 months, it went from odd problems similar to those you describe about once every 2 weeks, to (just before I replaced it) hardlocking and/or rebooting itself.
Memtest86 is your friend, or maybe foe if it tells you your ram is bad. |

I've already downloaded the ISO for Memtest86 and ran it through 4 cycles. No errors detected.
I will run mem tests all night tonight, and then check the motherboard temperature.
Thanks for the helpful response (also thanks to loftwyr).
I always brag about the Gentoo forums because its a decent crowd of folks that provide help not jeers.
So I finally found the apple in the barrel that no one wanted. 
Thanks again to the helpful responses I have received!

For what it's worth, I was being subtle, not funny. I see it's not very effective, though, as I can't tell from your reponse whether you learned to use the right word. Anyway, sorry for the throuble...
