Well, your email got here, and my email got to you, but stuff I sent to majordomo went unreplied, and I haven't seen anything from it (which should be addressed to 'fmayhar@exit.com' to distinguish it from other email). I've sent test email to 'fmayhar%exit.com@freebsd.org' which should loop back to me. I haven't seen it as yet, though. > I understand. We just need to figure out where your email is going, > first! :) Well, email to 'frank@exit.com' seems to be working fine, so I'll use it. I have a stack trace courtesy of ddb, btw. If you don't mind, I'll attach the info below, so that you can forward it to the appropriate parties. (I did the send-pr bit, but it apparently went into the bit bucket, sigh.) Configuration: Pentium 100, ASUS P55TP4XE motherboard, pipeline burst SRAM, 32 MB 60ns memory, Adaptec 2940W, Maxtor LXT340sy + 2 Toshiba MK538FBs (340 MB, and two 1.2 GB), Archive Viper 2150S tape, Actix GraphicsEngine Ultra +. Running FreeBSD 2.1.0-072695-SNAP. Crash: I run News on this box, with a compressed uucp newsfeed. While unpacking news, the system crashes with: Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode fault virtual address = 0xf81ef050 fault code = supervisor write, page not present instruction pointer = 0x8:0x4018679c code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b = DPL 0, pres 1, def 321, gran 1 processor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL=0 current process = 11503 (gzip) interrupt mask = net tty bio panic: page fault I finally got a trace courtesy of DDB (not corresponding to the above message, but the same fault code): _trap_fatal(efbffb4c,c,f0c10500,efbffb4c,f0b43e00) at _trap_fatal+0x277 _trap_pfault(efbffb4c,0,f024fb10,f01cbd60,f26db6f8) at _trap_pfault+0x158 _trap(10,10,f26eb6f8,f01cbd60,efbffb94) at _trap+0x27b calltrap(f01cbd60,2bfe0000,0,f26db6f8,0) at calltrap+0x15 _vm_hold_load_pages(f26eb6f8,f2bbc000,f2bbe000,f26db6f8) at _vm_hold_load_pages+0x4c _allocbuf(f26eb6f8,2000,efbffc98,efbffd10,ffffffff) at _allocbuf+0x8a _getblk(f0c7cd00,b,2000,0,0) at _getblk+0x23a _bread(f0c7cd00,b,2000,ffffffff,efbffc98) at _bread+0x21 _ffs_blkatoff(efbffd10,f0c7cd00,efbfff0c,efbffef8,f0bf2700) at _ffs_blkatoff+0xc3 _ufs_lookup(efbffd74,0,efbfff0c,efbffee8,1) at _ufs_lookup+0x44a _lookup(efbffee8,0,efbfff94,602,f0277f2c) at _lookup+0x256 _namei(efbffee8,0,efbfff94,f0c10500,f0c10500) at _namei+0x122 _vn_open(efbffee8,602,1b4,efbfff94,f0c10500) at _vn_open+0x5a _open(f0c10500,efbfff94,efbfff8c,842006,0) at _open+0x97 _syscall(27,27,287d4,0,efbfd2fc) at _syscall+0x161 I can reproduce this pretty much at will, so if there's anything else that anyone needs me to look at, let me know. If it's already solved, so much the better. Oh, the other problem is with the XFree86 3.1.1 server; I run the S3 server, and after a short time, it appears to hang. A ps (from a serial terminal) shows it racking up CPU. Sometimes there are visual flashes or short-lived garbage on the screen shortly before it crashes. Is there a known hardware incompatibility between the ASUS motherboard and the Actix card? Sorry for the length. I'm kind of desperate; I've been down for a few days, now, with no end in sight. Any help you could give me would be very, very much appreciated. Thanks. -- Frank Mayhar frank@exit.com
