I just installed the newly posted kernel (2.6.21-1.3219.fc7) last night
hoping it would somehow solve my lockup problems, alas, no such luck the
system just restarted itself via the watchdog timer. :(
I'm at a loss to provide useful information as nothing is sent to the
console (I've correctly set up a serial console).
Suggestions? Everything was quite stable under FC6 and I would prefer not
to go back if I don't have too. Am I the only one with lockup problems
with Fedora 7 with a Dual Core processor running x86_64 and Intel's 965
chipset?
Thanks, Jeff
