  • repetitive crashes

    From Khelair@VERT to All on Sat Aug 16 18:09:19 2014
    Not sure what the hell is going on, but my system, as of yesterday, started randomly crashing with a disturbingly short frequency. I haven't [yet] been able to trace what the hell might be causing it, and there is no clue in any of the logfiles that I've looked at so far. Nothing logged in any of the facilities or helper programs/events have anything near the same timeframe. I've cranked up logging to the debugging level; hopefully that provides a little of the information I've been looking for.
    I guess it's time to really get around to working on that OpenBSD build of the most recent version. :| Which reminds me, there were [obviously] no code updates that could've contributed to it, either. :P
    If anybody's got tips on collecting better crash data I'd be most appreciative.

    you want to compile usgin debug symbols with make DEBUG=1 and you must
    run under gdb

    gdb sbbs
    set args nd
    r

    after crash yo can use bt to get a backtrace
