I had been running 3.1-RELEASE for over 2 months with no problems. I updated my system binaries and kernel last week, and since then I have noticed less stability on the machine. First of all, my ide controller seems to be issuing a lot more error messages like this one: wd1: interrupt timeout (status 58 error 0) wd1: wdtimeout() DMA status 4 wd0: interrupt timeout (status 58 error 0) wd0: wdtimeout() DMA status 4 wd0: interrupt timeout (status 58 error 0) wd0: wdtimeout() DMA status 4 My machine is not completely scsi. I use cheap ide disks for backup and scratch space purposes. Until the upgrade, I would get the timeout errors only every once and a while, now they happen especially during bootup (fsck's and so on). Aside from that, the machine has locked up completely on 2 occasions in the last 24 hours. I get no console messages and no logs whatsoever explaining whats happening. I am running 3.2-STABLE now with SMP enabled. I used the same configuration file I used when I compiled the 3.1-REL kernel about 2 months ago, and the machine was genuinely more happy that way. The only change I made was adding ccd support to the new kernel, but I can't help think thats unrelated. Any ideas? Need more info? I switched to stable for a reason, stability! :) it's not cooperating.
