Hi, I hope you can understand what I am about to ask as I am dyslexlic so it night not make any sense. So please forgive. I will try to proof this to my best. I have releasely purchase new hardware to replace my old box that was running 9.1. The specs are as follow.... AMD 2600 KV-7 Motherboard (Socket A) 1.5 Gigs of DDR 400/3200 Hightower IDE (133) PCI Card Five Harddrives 200, 100, 80, 30, and 30 Samsung and WD. 24x Samsung IDE CDR ATI 9700 AGP Card TV Turner Card Soundblaster 512 ( I turned off the on board sound card as I see in dmesg that it not support). Secound Nic that came out of my box, sorry not sure what it is. I am running 10.0RC I have a problem where around midnight after the security report is ran. My box flakes out, it will either not let me log on, sshd and tty disappear once you log in and it comes back to log in screen or it just locks up. The only two error I can see are these /usr/lib/sa/sa1: line 21: 24505 Segmentation fault ${ENDIR}/sadc -F -L 1 1 ${DFILE} The other thing I get a lot of kernel errors that I like to find out how I can grep them out of the log so that I can see if they are related. I have got the release version of 10.0 but if I try to upgrae it locks up as well. Payne
