Fedora 11 freezes

[goude]

Hello everyone

Fedora 11 is constantly freezing after a few minutes up. I run memtest but couldn't complete the test becuase the machine keeps freezing during the test. All fans are working and the CPU's temperature is normal (around 49C), so I don't think it overheats or something. I really don't know what is happening.

I tailed the messages log:

tail -f /var/log/messages

and waited for the machine to freeze again. A second before it froze I got the following message in the log.

avahi-daemon[1498]: Invalid response packet from host 10.0.0.78

Does anyone have any ideas/tips? Any suggestions please?

Many thanks

I have now change the graphics card to a different bus on the motherboard. The machine hasn't hang yet. It seems to be working however I get the following in var/log/messages:

It seems to be working now but the log above doesn't look healthy.

the set_rtc_mmss section is telling you that it is trying to update the cmos time ... but it goes away later in the boot process.

the avahi-daemon though.... could be improperly configured dhcp settings? or perhaps dns settings?

Sorry for my late reply. First of all thanks for your reply.

After a lot of fiddling around, I noticed that with a different graphics card onboard the machine works fine. Don't know why and there was nothing in the log file about it.
Weird?
