The last kernel sux a lot!!! crashes,hardware problems & network!

[karlpiuemeno]

Hi geeks

In these days I'm having a lot of issues... Instability, xorg HARD lockups (MUST HARD RESET), mouse "jumping" and freezing.... and network slowing...

I think that it's all kernel releated... I've problems since the last update..
Linux karlpc 2.6.23.14-107.fc8 #1 SMP Mon Jan 14 21:37:30 EST 2008 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux


so now I'm going to boot with the last "stable" I had... 2.6.23.9-85

anyone having these issues?

They're very annoying..

Now rebooted with the 2.6.23.9-85 kernel and seems to work ok.. internet back fast, mouse ok......

what's happening? buggy release?

You can report your problems to Bugzilla and let the developers know that problems exist. They don't monitor our Forum and may not realize that things are not perfect unless you tell them. Since you have a good working kernel and hopefully it handles your every need, I'd use the --exclude kernel during future updates.

yes I know they don't read our forum I'll report the problem

I think it's strange... usually the fedora team releases very good kernels... never had problems... That's the first time I've so many instability issues in a so short time...

I need the old linux headers package... where can I find it???

I went to RPM Pbone and plugged "kernel-headers-2.6.23.9-85" into the Fedora8 search criteria and did come up with at least one or two sites that still have it. I'd act quickly, as they're going fast. 32 bit search yields: http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3?stat...5.fc8.i386.rpm

Koji still has them and a lot more

RPMPbone really should link that site. Guess they're using the same Search engine the Forum uses.
