I'm mananged to solve most Gentoo problems myself in the past - but this is |
| 2 |
really confusing me, so I'd appreciate any suggestions. |
| 3 |

I've got a Gigabyte GA-K8NSC-939 motherboard, which had 2GB of memory, and |
| 5 |
worked perfectly. I upgraded to 4GB, and have spent the last 24 hours trying |
| 6 |
to get everything to work again! |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
memtest86plus was running overnight, with no errors, so I assume the memory |
| 9 |
is fine. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
The system is very unstable now, and will lock up at random intervals - |
| 12 |
during booting, starting firefox, random points compiling kernels, etc etc |
| 13 |
etc. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
I removed some memory, so I could compile a kernel with MMU options that I |
| 16 |
thought might help, but to no avail. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Additionally, if I go into the BIOS and enable: |
| 19 |
Advance Chipset Features -> MEM Remap (4G RAM Support) |
| 20 |
The following appears at the end of dmesg: |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
skge eth0: enabling interface |
| 23 |
skge 0000:02:0b.0: PCI error cmd=0x7 status=0x22b0 |
| 24 |
skge unable to clear error (so ignoring them) |
| 25 |
skge eth0: Link is up at 100 Mbps, full duplex, flow control tx and rx |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
and there is no networking - although ifconfig reports the "correct" |
| 28 |
details. With it disabled, networking works. |
| 29 |
|

Any suggestions/pointers would be appreciated, as I feel like I've tried |
| 31 |
everything! |
| 32 |

Cheers |
