Since the last Fedora 10 kernel update from a couple of days ago my stable,
up to then, FC 10 box now locks up regularly.
The only thing I see in the log file is the message below:
Oct 4 09:01:01 localhost kernel: crond[26192] general protection ip:9317f4
sp:bfdff2d8 error:0 in libnss_files-2.9.so[930000+b000]
I see quite a few of these messages.
Is this the reason why I'm seeing lockups?
I found I may have to reboot the machine at least twice in a row to
get it back to what appears to be a normal functioning state. The first
reboot required the "Big Red Switch" since Nothing was working.
As a test I removed the crond daemon, using yum extender, and then
reinstalled it to see how it goes. Until I did the double reboot above even
yum wouldn't work, complained about a python module being missing.
