"TLB parity error in virtual array; TLB error 'instruction"?

Does anyone know what these ticks do to cause
these rare and random machine errors and kernel panics?

No but everything about those errors looks hardware related so I'd be looking at

"TLB parity error in virtual array; TLB error 'instruction"?

Wrong, Linux implements the configuration features also. Some
machines, probably newer laptops, can't be configured without ACPI.
Very frustrating when `lspci` shows it. I presume some sort...

"TLB parity error in virtual array; TLB error 'instruction"?

Having a better look through your logs, I see this addr is
very common (almost all errs are at this addr). Aren't
you curious about the instruction that produced the errors?

"TLB parity error in virtual array; TLB error 'instruction"?

I remember reconfiguring Kernel during Red Hat days. Oh my
goodness, that was a such a pain to reconfigure since I had NO
idea what each part was for! So I never touched it again. :D

OK, I will abort it after this post. FYI for almost this 33 processes'

"TLB parity error in virtual array; TLB error 'instruction"?

Too much trouble as in what? Swap partition going crazy
like when I ran 40 processes? :D

Thrashing (continuous swapping in/out) is an obvious
sign of an overloaded system. Useful to see...

So far no errors (no TLB errors and crashes within eight hours. I will

those processes so I can use the machine.

"TLB parity error in virtual array; TLB error 'instruction"?

No, you told me to do seven instead of 40. I think I had all 40 when I aborted yesterday.

No, I believe I told you to run 7 _less_ , so 33 iso 40.

Aww crap. You're right. I misread that and...

"TLB parity error in virtual array; TLB error 'instruction"?

Your original PSU problem, what caused it? Lightening? Or did it just go
on its own for some unknown reason? If it went on its own, then it's
likely it caused this level of damage to your...

HDD problems causing Kernel panics in Linux/Debian?

You don't need to, no disk access is possible after a kernel
panic, hence no loging. The only thing you can do, is to
look at the screen or to enable the serial console output and

High CPU usages and sometimes hard crashes in my Debian/Linux.

Those temps don't look terrible, try running sys_basher for an hour. Use

Dying/Failing Old HDD?

Best check free memory.

I checked already.

However, the system only has 1 GB of RAM, but I don't recall it being that slow.


Other possible causes:
- Spyware/malware.
