Go to

www.memtest86.com

and download memtest and run it on the server. It takes about an hour, and
it will catch bad RAM.

Subject: [lug] Reboot Problem


I have a server that has been running RedHat 7.2 for several months with no
problems. I restarted a daemon last evening and now the server reboots
itself indiscrimantly: on start of Gnome, on start of terminal shells, on
start of daemons
 I do not think it is a file system problem. Sometimes
Gnome will start with very erratic mouse behaviour (uncontrollable) which
leads me to believe it is an X corruption, but other times it starts fine.
Very strange behavior. Anyone care to take a shot on the problem and (most
importantly) a fix (I do not want to rebuild the server).

Regards,
Bill Wimsatt
