Is this Linux’s fault (normal to happen), or is this something else that may have been waiting to happen? I know you can’t answer without being here, but.. have you heard of anything else like this happening either with Linux or PhotoShop?

After working several years in a high-volume data center, I can pretty much guarantee that it is not the fault of Linux :)

More likely, it is just older RAM that has been waiting for downtime to actually fail. I have seen my share of servers that run fine for years until someone powers them down and then hardware issues crop up.

Well, I will say that about a year ago I had a similar problem with these RAM ‘chips’ on win7.. total fail, with exception of one.. strangely, the 1 that worked then (and after 2 weeks before I put the others back in), it is one of them to fail now :/ the only one that is working now failed then... what a strange world :p

Ok, will try to upgrade RAM asap.. :p
