Dell 2650 Dual Xeon freezing up frequently
Quoted 4 lines · Ian S. Nelson
I'm running a RedHat 2.4.20 kernel on some 2650's all dual xeon
(pentium 4 jacksonized so it looks like 4 procsessors) 2 have 1GB of
RAM and 1 has 2GB of RAM. THey all wedge, some times after a few
minutes, sometimes after hours.
Make sure you have an up-to-date tg3 network driver. There was a brief period of time around when 2.4.20 was released where it didn't have all the hardware quirk workarounds in it. Something in the current 2.4.x tree should work fine.
Thanks,
Matt
