[64studio-devel] Jack Frost - System Freeze

[Paul Morris]

Hi Daniel,

I pulled the "hoontech" card, and the USB CF reader too. System froze
after 10 hrs and again after 2 when I rebooted. I've increased the
voltage on the RAM and disabled memory lock. Again I get system freeze
after 3 hours. As before, the ScrollLock and CapsLock leds are
flashing. 

I've noticed that my CPU is at 67-69%, for what that is worth. And I've
disabled all video power management and screen savers.   

Latest entries in syslog at time of the freeze ups are now Studio64 MARK
entries. 

I could pull out my hair but I'm not sure that would help. Any ideas?

I've started a blog to document my efforts to build a live digital
mixer. I'm basing the console on 64-Studio so I've linked you on the 

Cheers,

Slim
