Re: Lombard hard freeze (update: mem>64MB)

When I had only 64MB the system was stable!
I managed to compile GRASS (which is among the biggest free software
projects) and other things.

Plugging in a different 128MB and a different 64MB, both in the first
slot, made the system unstable each time.

This explains why Micheal has a stable system.
Sadly it is still a big problem.

I guess I am just lucky then. I went to a Fry's Electronics while I was in the
valley area. Not only was I lucky enough to get the right module for my
lombard but I was also lucky enough to have it give me no problems in linux or
macos. Running silky smooth here at 192MB and I am already considering maxing
it out just for bragging rights.

PS: If you have never heard of the infamous "Fry's", just ask anyone who lives
in the valley. I'm sure they'll have at least one horror story.

$299 ethernet cable.  Reversed two digits of the number and rang it up as
a sound system.  Or the $30 ATA/66 cable that I found on the 'net for $3.
Infamous is perhaps a little too kind.  ;-)
