Hi, I just want some thoughts on this: In the last 24 hours my workstation is been going nuts, whereas it has been running along nicely for weeks before. The things that kept me bugging today were these happy messages: Dec 20 10:51:14 chronias /kernel: Unexpected busfree. LASTPHASE == 0xa0 Dec 20 10:51:15 chronias /kernel: SEQADDR == 0x157 Dec 20 10:51:15 chronias /kernel: (da1:ahc0:0:1:0): SCB 0x5 - timed out while idle, LASTPHASE == 0x1, SEQADDR == 0xc Dec 20 10:51:15 chronias /kernel: (da1:ahc0:0:1:0): Queuing a BDR SCB Dec 20 10:51:15 chronias /kernel: (da1:ahc0:0:1:0): Bus Device Reset Message Sent Dec 20 10:51:15 chronias /kernel: (da1:ahc0:0:1:0): no longer in timeout, status = 353 After which page and swap process were running wild. The weird thing is, these HD's (two SCSI Quantum Fireballs) have been checked, the HA (AHA 2940UW) is likewise in good shape and the memory chips have been tested as well... The mainboard is also in good shape and is cooled by a few fans (3) which all work, including the one on the CPU. The circumstances when this happened was when I did a locate.updatedb at the same time as downloading a PDF file to the HD, and then I opened a mailbox at which time the whole time went haywire... Unfortunately I wasn't able to write down the pager messages since they went by with warpspeed 9 and they weren't logged in /var/log/messages =\ Does anybody have any ideas what to check to narrow down the problem? --- Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven Life is the only Pain asmodai(at)wxs.nl we endeavour...
