OK, sorry about not sending that to the list... Anyway, I enabled logging, and checked /var/log/kernel right after rebooting after a crash. Here's the part of the log from the beginning to when the kernel starts to print boot messages:

It seems to be a similar error. I did some Googling and found some information suggesting that this could be a video card problem, but I'm not sure...
The above are typical booting messages, I think; I can not see there anything related to a crash or something very wrong. The only one strange to me is: Aug 16 10:56:42 leartes kernel: mtrr: 0xf0000000,0x4000000 overlaps existing 0xf0000000,0x1000000 There is something wrong there. The normal kernel log stop and start sequence is like this: Aug 16 16:18:57 nimrodel kernel: Kernel logging (proc) stopped. Aug 16 16:18:57 nimrodel kernel: Kernel log daemon terminating. Aug 16 20:17:40 nimrodel kernel: klogd 1.4.1, log source = /proc/kmsg started. Aug 16 20:17:40 nimrodel kernel: Inspecting /boot/System.map-2.6.5-7.104-default The first two lines belong to the halt sequence, the other two to the next boot. Notice the time difference. And the log you posted starts with the line marking the start of the boot sequence as well... unless it crashed right after the mtrr line. Is that it? -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
