Recently, these messages started popping up straight into my prompt when I'm connected to the OpenSUSE system in question via PuTTY:Message from syslogd@host at Aug  5 11:04:03 ... kernel:[ 6177.851012] EIP: [<75c0234e>] 0x75c0234e SS:ESP 0068:f324dde1Message from syslogd@host at Aug  5 11:15:01 ... kernel:[ 6836.654020] Process sh (pid: 6245, ti=f2bee000 task=f32fd2b0 task.ti=f2bee000)Message from syslogd@host at Aug  5 11:15:01 ... kernel:[ 6836.654020] Stack:Message from syslogd@host at Aug  5 11:15:01 ... kernel:[ 6836.654020] Call Trace:Message from syslogd@host at Aug  5 11:15:01 ... kernel:[ 6836.654020] Inexact backtrace:Message from syslogd@host at Aug  5 11:15:01 ... kernel:[ 6836.654020]Message from syslogd@host at Aug  5 11:15:01 ... kernel:[ 6836.654020] Code:  Bad EIP value.Message from syslogd@host at Aug  5 11:15:01 ... kernel:[ 6836.654020] EIP: [<75c0234e>] 0x75c0234e SS:ESP 0068:f2befeadI know some very basic stuff about Linux but this catches me off guard. What does this mean? How do I troubleshoot?edit Turns out the system is actually unreachable now, while it does reply to ping I cannot connect via SSH to it. Is there anything I can do physically on the machine?
Messages from syslogd, what do they mean and what do I do?
