( kernel fault: software detected SEGV NFS2 getattr failed for server /dev/scsi/sc0d4l0: Timed out ) this effect is repeatable. can anybody try this on other OS versions philipp schott =============================================================== Philipp Schott Institute for Applied Mathematics Hermann-Herder-Str. 10 Freiburg University D-79104 Freiburg Phone: +49-761-203-5626 Fax: +49-761-203-5632 email: pmws@gmx.net <A HREF="http://i.am/philipp.schott"><A HREF="http://i.am/philipp.schott</A">http://i.am/philipp.schott</A</A>> =============================================================== --- Sent through Global Message Exchange - <A HREF="http://www.gmx.net"><A HREF="http://www.gmx.net</A">http://www.gmx.net</A</A>> - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archiv at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>
