General :: App Segfaults Every LiveCD/DVD Kernel Panics?

Jan 23, 2011

My friend's PC recently started acting up. He had me install Sabayon on it and everything was fine until a few days ago. Every app I try to run after the PC boots results in a segmentation fault. I figured maybe something was wrong with the HDD, so I tried to boot from a DSL liveCD to run fsck, but it wouldn't boot; it freezes right away. I then tried the Sabayon LiveDVD and got a kernel panic.Does anyone have any idea what the problem could be? I am completely clueless; I've never had anything like this happen before.

Ubuntu :: Getting Kernel Panics While Booting From LiveCD / USB

Feb 17, 2011

I just built a computer with these specs:
Asus P7P55D-E Pro Mother Board
2 x 4gb GSkill RipJaw 1333
Intel Core i5-760 cpu
MSI nVidia GeFore GTX-460 Video Card

When I try to boot from a live CD/USB I always get some sort of kernel panic, most times about USB controllers and other times about cpu_idle. I have pictures of these that I can post but nothing from any logs because this is happening even before I install. I have left memtest running over night for 11 hours and had no problems, I have tried to boot with only one stick of memory, I have changed the video card to a GeForce 8800 and I have tried everything on a different motherboard and still no luck. Would I wrong to say that there is a problem with the CPU and should I return it? My only problem with all of this is that Windows installs perfectly fine on the computer with zero problems...weird.

Fedora Installation :: Kernel Panics On Both LiveCD And Install DVD

Feb 23, 2010

I've been trying to install fedora 12 on my laptop, however, I've been running into kernel panics on both the live cd and the install dvd. I'm using an HP HDX16 with an Intel Core Two Duo T9400 @ 2.53ghz, and a Nvidia Geforce 9600M GT. Dunno if any other hardware might be involved. Here's the text I get on my screen:

General :: Kernel Panics - RAID Or XFS Related?

Jun 21, 2010

After building a new system I have been getting kernel panics randomly. I have been able to look at /var/log/messages and determine that either my RAID card, XFS, or something along those lines is causing the problem. It has now gotten bad enough that any heavy use of the RAID will cause it to panic and die.

There is one large file on this that I need which is not on my backups but when I try to get it off, the transfer will cause a kernel panic within minutes. What is causing the panic? Is there any way to resolve it? The RAID card is an LSI SAS3081E-R and I am using the built in drivers/modules within Ubuntu 10.04 x64 (pretty sure the kernel itself has the driver included). There is source available for the driver from LSI's site but I'm not sure if that will solve the problem and in addition to that, I can't figure out how to compile and install it. It has a Makefile already but make just complains "no targets".

Code:
Jun 21 13:00:22 cyan kernel: [ 706.206498] ffff88019652daf8 ffff88018ff61698 ffff8801935ddd50 ffffea00038f6650
Jun 21 13:00:22 cyan kernel: [ 706.206472] Process xfsdatad/2 (pid: 862, threadinfo ffff8801935dc000, task ffff88019652dac0)

Ubuntu :: Kernel Panics In Natty All The Time?

May 10, 2011

I have been a happy Ubuntu and other distros user from 2007 to now. Had my old 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon (Ubuntu Studio actually) that I really felt was time to upgrade. Then I downloaded the ISO image for 11.04 Natty Narwhal past 4 day ago. It gave me an option to install on my old 7.10, upgrading it, then I chose that one not to have to lose my data.

At the very end of the installation (when downloading several packages from the net) I got a kernel panic.
After that I reinstalled from zero wiping the whole partition, with the same results. It only worked when I disconnected the net cable so it wouldn't download anything during install. Then I could run the 11.04, but kept getting kernel panics, and after some testings (I thought it was the nvidia video drivers at first) I think it happens after some ammount of network traffic happens.

Memtest went normal, I tried logging with no-effects and I tried some solutions from forums with no results. The pc can be on and working for hours, but after I start surfing the web for some time, I get a freeze. Sometimes Caps Lock and Scroll Lock leds are flashing, and sometimes just freezes to simply become unresponsive. When it was during the installation I got a message saying it would pop out into console because panic occured and then froze. Anyway I always have to press the reset button.

I would like to be sure if I have some of my hardware broken or if the newest kernel is still green on some hardware support; maybe network. I'd also like to know if I can install older versions of the kernel; I think that should fix the problem because other distros worked perfectly here before. I also heard about some kernel-image-pae being different from the ordinary kernel image. Could it help if I change that package? I'm waiting to install 11.04 in my wife's computer also but of course I don't want to bring any problems on her! My net card is Nvidia Nforce and my processor is AMD Athlon II X2 with a GForce 9400 for video card.

CentOS 5 :: Install DVD Starts And Then Kernel Panics

Apr 29, 2009

I'm trying to use and old Dell Dimension 2350 workstation with 1GB of RAM and a 200GB drive as a home server. I boot the CentOS 5.3 install DVD, get to the splash screen and hit ENTER to start the install. The install routine starts and then kernel panics with a very long trace I can't make sense of. I've used the DVD for other installs so I know the media is good.Are there any known quirks to installing linux on a Dimension 2350? Maybe some kernel line parameters like no acpi?? As a test, I took an Ubuntu server cd, and the install actually completed but on reboot it kernel panicked with a similar long trace error. Obviously this is most likely a hardware issue.

CentOS 5 :: Random Kernel Panics / Correct It?

Jul 8, 2009

I'm running CentOS 5.3 x86_64 on my laptop (dell vostro 1400, core2duo, 3GB RAM, intel 3945ABG wireless, nvidia video and LAN). The problem is that some times (like 15-20% of times) I shutdown the laptop, I get a kernel panic related always to the wireless kernel module (I haven't been able to get screenshot or anything). I'm using the latest centosplus kernel. I never get these panics with the standard CentOS kernel, however the standard kernel doesn't light the wireless led, and that annoys me a lot. Therefore I'm forced to use centosplus kernel. The question is not how to solve this (i know I've not given enough details) but what to do to diagnose better the cause of the panic and then correct it.

OpenSUSE Install :: Update To 11.3 And Getting Kernel Panics Randomly

Since the update to 11.3 i'm getting kernel panics randomly. Because the X server freezes and I can only force an "unexpected reboot", there is not much information I have. I installed kdump and activated it with the Yast module. I'm collecting dump files, now. But I'm not sure what to do with does files.

Ubuntu Networking :: 64 Bit Bcm4311 Wireless Random Kernel Panics?

Sep 22, 2010

I have this weird issue which only appears when I am using 64 bit Ubuntu. Every now and then my laptop seems to go into a kernel panic (system unresponsive, numlock and scrollock lights flash repetitively) only when I am using the broadcom wireless. I can connect to my wireless router and use the internet and local network, but eventually, kablamo, crash, bang, boom. The only way out of the crash is to power off completely. After repowering, the wireless network is fine until the next crash. There does not seem to be a pattern or time period to cause this crash either. I have purged network manager(which I couldn't get to use my wireless) and am using wicd, which allows me to connect wirelessly.

Here is the details of my system:

Dell inspiron 1520
lspci (snipped)
0c:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN (rev 01)

CentOS 5 :: Install, Recurring Kernel Panics Crashing System?

Recently switched my home server from Gentoo to CentOS and have been getting kernel panics consistently since I made the server "live". The machine was built with all new hardware. I'll post relevant configuration info and picture of the kernel panic below. So far all kernel panics have been with kernel "2.6.18-164.9.1.el5.centos.plus", right now I am testing with the kernel listed below to see if it does the same thing (2.6.18-164.9.1.el5).

OpenSUSE Install :: 11.4 Xen Kernel Aacraid Drive Panics With Adaptec ServeRAID 8k-l

Mar 28, 2011

I have loaded openSuSE 11.4 on an IBM x3400 box with an Adaptec ServeRAID 8k-l SAS harddisk adapter. openSuSE 11.1 was previously loaded on this box and was using XEN kernels.) The default "desktop" kernel boots and operates correctly. I use this machine to run other XEN virtual machines to run different versions or our companies printer controller application. When I attempt to boot the xen kernel, the kernel cannot locate the root partition (or any other partition) on the hard disk. Here are a few lines of kernel output:

Ubuntu Installation :: Firefox Started To Crash Randomly And Led To Kernel Panics

Aug 2, 2011

A while ago, when I was using Maverick, Firefox started to crash randomly and led to kernel panics.

So I upgraded to Natty (clean install) and Firefox there too crashed.

Then I was getting graphics and make problems.

Today I tried to install Fedora 15. It first boots to a Live desktop that warned me that my hard drive had 65000+ bad sectors. Sixty-five thousand.

So I got a new one. A WD Scorpio Black, 750GB 7200RPM with Advanced Format.

Again I boot into Fedora 15. OK, no bad sectors. I tried to run Disk Utility Self Tests but it constantly crashed. Fedora warns you about this.

In the Live session, I opened Firefox. It also crashed just like back in Ubuntu. Then the screen flashes black and got warnings after warnings that a kernel module has crashed.

So I took out my old Maverick installation CD and first tried a Live session. However, Disk Utility told me that SMART is not supported while on Fedora, it was.

So I tried to install. But soon after that, I got a warning that the installer has crashed because a file copied to the disk did not match the file on CD. Right now I am in the Maverick Live session.

General :: Kernel-kits That Allow To Create A Livecd Backup

Jul 5, 2010

In doing my kernel-kits that allow you to create a livecd backup of your installed slackware or arch install, I came across stuff about how many x86 or x86_64 systems use a PAE kernel?

if thats so; should I release a PAE kernel kit also besides the x86 and x86_64 kernel kits for slackware/arch??

or is it not a big thing?

Can anyone run a PAE kernel or it should be a seperate build? the x86/x86_64 kits are not PAE...let me check...

The above message is repeated several times until the kernel eventually "panics".If I use a non-encrypted SATA (Maxtor, Fujitsu, etc), the install works. It only fails with Flagstone SATA encrypted hard disks.

General :: Segfaults Are Not Logging Into /var/log/messages

Dec 8, 2010

I'm using Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5. In this whenever a user process crashes due to segmentaion faults , it was not logged in /var/log/messages. Even dmesg is also not showing any messages related to this.

Where as in another distributions(Cent OS 5) I've seen segfaults messages in /var/log/messages whenever my user process crashed.dmesg also showing the segfaults.

Is there any settings that to enabled so that it logs segfaults into /var/log/messages.

I cross checked /etc/syslog.conf of both the systems. Both are same and even /etc/sysconfig/syslog files.

General :: Cause Segfaults While Compiling, If The Ram Seems To Be Fine?

Jul 22, 2011

I googled around but most of what I could find said that segfaults are generally a memory issue. I've noticed lately that I'll occasionally get a segfault while compiling on my computer. There's no noticeable pattern, just that every now and then a bit of software that I'm trying to compile will segfault on me, even software that I've compiled in the past.

I ran memtest86+, but it showed no issues at all. I run a stock kernel on Slackware, with no modifications to the system other than installing multilib support (which I'm 100% sure is done correctly).

Ubuntu :: Transmission Causing Panics Every 2 Minutes?

Jan 26, 2010

Is anyone else having trouble with frequent kernel panics whenever the Transmission bittorrent client is running? I get them after about 1-2 minutes of having transmission running, and need to do a hard reset. I didn't restart transmission this last time and it has been almost 10 minutes with no problems. I've been having problems left and right with KPs since around 8.04 but previously they were infrequent enough that it was still more convenient than using windows...Every 2 minutes is ridiculous though, if I can't fix it I'm going to need to get another torrent client!

Ubuntu :: GDM Segfaults A Lot After Update?

May 26, 2010

This just started today, after I installed a round of updates yesterday: I would attempt to login to my GNOME session. One of three things happens: it hangs, looking like it's authenticating, it lets me into my session but then abruptly logs me out and wrecks anything I was doing, or GDM just crashes altogether.

On tty6, I found this error in dmesg:

Code:
gdm-session-wor[1392]: segfault at 1 ip 0000000000000001 sp 00007fff57babe18 error 14 in gdm-session-worker[400000 + 17000]

The numbers may be slightly off, I had no way to copy and paste the error. I have no modifications to GDM except libpam-usb, which doesn't even work. Is it possible to roll back GDM to before the update?

Ubuntu :: Various Segfaults And/or Crashes ?

I have some curious errors and crashes since yesterday. Firefox crashes without saying anything or just freezes. Thunderbird also crashed once without any reason, as far as I could discern.

Compiz is another candidate. Either it segfaults and sends me back to the GDM login screen or it crashes in another way, resulting in a flickering window with an unreadable error message (just an empty window with the nautilus icon in the menu bar, background image stays the same, Unity or any other compiz things are gone). I even had some real X segfaults mixed in.

Ubuntu :: Frequent Segfaults In Various Programs

May 31, 2010

In LMMS, pretty much any time where pressing a key or button is supposed to do something, it can crash. Regardless of what made it crash, it always dies in the exact same way: The window just disappears, and I get the line "Segmentation fault" in the console. Usually it crashes within 15 minutes of normal use. Not even 6 hours after I downloaded the program, I had given up trying to use it. Over the next week, a couple other programs crashed with segfaults.

Most of them only crashed once (among those was Firefox). So, of course, I'm now beginning to think that maybe the problem is not with LMMS, but rather with Ubuntu. I've had very little luck getting most of these programs to crash a second time, but I did find reliable ways to reproduce the crash in LMMS and Golly, so I got debug logs of those (with backtraces and steps I took to reproduce):

Code:
What I did to make LMMS Crash:
1. After starting LMMS, created an instrument track using the Oh Synth preset (under LB302)
2. Opened the tool window for the track.
3. Dragged my cursor back and forth across the keys on the virtual piano at the bottom of said window to play them.
4. Within 3 seconds, it crashed.

Starting program: /usr/bin/lmms

[New Thread 0xb195ab70 (LWP 4680)]
[New Thread 0xb1159b70 (LWP 4681)] .....

Code:
What I Did to make Golly Crash:
1. After starting Golly, loaded the example file "Still-Lifes/eaters.rle".
2. Alternated between Space (Next Generation) and Ctrl+Z (Undo), holding each for about 1 second.
3. Within 15 seconds, it crashed.

Starting program: /usr/games/golly
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

I've tried using different governors for CPU (Conservative, Ondemand, etc.), and these crashes continued to occur. I also tried using a different kernel to no avail; the crashes occur both on 2.6.32-21-generic and 2.6.31-17-generic. How to fix whatever's causing these segfaults.
