Hi
Please CC answers to me since I'm not subscribed here.
Since a while now I sometimes get strange lockups when trying to compile
c++ programms.
I cannot reproduce it exactly, but on larger c++ apps like Kde or Mozilla,
the build hangs sooner or later.
I get this behavior with all kernels from 2.4.3 to 2.4.16 (haven't checked
the newer ones yet)
The problem is that I cannot truely locate, where the error occurs, the logs
are quite, and the system is truely dead (only HW reset works)
I first suspected my graphics HW (NVIDIA) to be causing the problems, but
the problems remain under Plain console, with no Drivers loaded.
The recent AMD/AGP Bug is also not causing it, I've checked that.
I suppose the Problem is somewhere in the ReiserFs part, since when this hang
happens the last processed c++ file sometimes gets corrupted.
If you need more Info on this please contact me, I'll try to give it then
I Hope someone can help me.
TIA

I won;t be so sure about that.
It may be that hang appears elsewhere, and reiserfs just have no time
to fill allocated data block with meaningful data.
Reiserfs does not offer data journaling, so only metadata consistiency is
there.
What you are describing looks more like faulty hardware.
