Hi,
since about 2 weeks I have random crashes of different apps on one of my Tumbleweed machines. Strg+Alt+F10 shows i/o errors on /dev/sdb after such an app crash. sdb is an SSD where root and home lived happily together for the past 4 years.
Could this mean that my SSD dies?
Post a few sample errors and it may be possible to give an educated guess. I find sata cables have to be replaced occasionally if they are flexed or connected/disconnected often. The rated life a typical sata cable is very few insertions (500 I think). They are cheap to buy. I would try that as my first troubleshooting step.
And where is the output of Strg+Alt+F10 stored? I can´t find the i/o error messages in /var/log/messages, dmesg, xsession-errors or boot.log.
If they are "i/o errors" and not "media errors" then I suspect the cables even more. Greg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
