I hope someone can tell me whether or not this is = hardware-related: asarian-host.net kernel log messages: > 9 10/100BaseTX> port 0xa000-0xa0ff mem 0xda000000-0xda0000ff irq 11 at = device 13.0 on pci0 > pid 15369 (httpd), uid 65534: exited on signal 11 asarian-host.net kernel log messages: > da0000ff irq 11 at device 13.0 on pci0 > pid 1478 (httpd), uid 65534: exited on signal 10 It seems to me a matter of software; a read on a wrong memory address, = to be precise. But since the log talks about a device on a pci bus, and = one of the signals is a bus error (signal 10), maybe it is hardware = after all. I must say, though, that I only ever experience this with the http = daemon. The rest is rock-solid. Any diagnostic help is appreciated. Thanks, - Mark
