Acually, you've touched the problem yourself. When we installed our new computer (2xPIII@500) I made the mistake of overclocking the processors. (Mistake is not really the right term, as I got what I wanted and was allowed to install SuSE, because we thought it was a problem with the RH smp-kernel) Overclocking is fine when using only 1 CPU but when using 2 overclocking becomes troublesome, with oopses and panics...
Short answer: Don't overclock smp-systems...
I am running SuSE Linux on a dual-Celeron300A@450MHz system here for 8 months now and I did not experience a single glitch at all.

Yeah...that is true guys...I think the problem is not the overclocking because: 1) It gives me exactly the same problems when they are not overclocked 2) It works ok with the smp Kernel 2.1 3) there is a whole website (I think is is called linux smp or something) that has 100s of overclokced BP6 boards that were overclocked and have no problem on linux smp (<--strangely most of the are on Linux Red Hat 6.1) I don't want to sell my dear overclocked PC for a gameboy...pleez help Thanx...... ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
