Bug Description
Binary package hint: linux-image-
I have a new P35-based motherboard, with room for 8GB of RAM, and a Q6600 CPU. If all 4 of the 2GB DIMMs are present, the performance of the kernel is extremely poor: the system runs at about 1/100th of its normal speed. If 1 DIMM is removed, everything is fine.
This is the version as installed by gutsy nightly, on 28th July: kernel 2.6.22-8 x86_64
I originally filed it as bug #128977 in the installer; there are some more details and the exact hardware listing there.
I've uploaded a tarball here: http://
dmesg, var/log/messages, most of /proc
Hope this is useful
There's nothing helpful about this bug anywhere on google, as far as I can see.
Thanks very much - Richard
