Komala" To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Page fault caused by Pine 3.91 Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi I have just added more memory and switched network card. Now, Pine often caused Page Fault while there are a lot of free memory. Error message: Page fault while in kernel mode Supervisor write, while page not present? Unfortunately, I don't remember the whole lines. My hardware configuration now: Pentium-100 with Taiwanese motherboard with Triton chipsets, 64MB RAM (two 32MB 72pin 60ns no parity), Adaptec 2940 PCI, 4.3GB hard drive, Toshiba 2x SCSI-CDROM, Accton Combo ISA Ethernet card (IRQ 5, Base I/O 0x280). Before my system had 32MB RAM (two 16MB 72pin 60ns no parity) and Intel EtherExpress 16 which kept causing device ix0 timeout error. When my system was still using the EtherExpress 16 with 32MB of RAM, Pine never caused the system to crash. Page fault started happening once I installed the new memory, new network card, and recompiled the kernel to incorporate the new ethernet card. The memory tested good running on another system for a few days. Thanks for any help to solve this problem.
