Second issue: amd cpu based desktop locking up at random with no error messages. The only symptom is there are a lot of [900.000017] [Hardware Error]: No human readable MCE decoding support on this cpu type errors in syslog and the numerical number is different each time. I used the nomce option which does stop the error messages, but the amd cpu based desktop is still unstable, with random lock ups.
MCE = Machine Check Error. Read: your CPU is probably failing.
hmm perhaps but runs just fine on 11.3 or any other os, I've used on this box prior to 11.4 update, so thinking that's not it. This happens only with 11.4, so far.
Maybe it wasn't being reported correctly in 11.3. I think the two indications are quite clear: random lock ups + machine checks. However, it is possible that the messages stem from a corrected error, in which case they shouldn't be logged at all. Maybe try installing mcelog, that might produce more useful messages. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (10.8°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
