It doesn't seem like much to me for ~27M lines of code
And over 4,000 developers, so you're probably right.

Yes, you're right. Everybody ignore my previous post. I need patching.

Something new in 5.15.34-x64 has caused this, on 5.15.33-x64 there's nothing.
Code:
[    0.645036] amd_gpio AMDI0030:00: Failed to translate GPIO pin 0x003D to IRQ, err -517
Note: I just do "dmesg |grep Fail" out of habit.

To fix my problem above, I'm disabling HPET in the BIOS (the default anyway). I probably never should have enabled HPET in BIOS. Now running 5.15.34, and I'll see how it goes.

This release lowers the risk of PEBCAK, and fixes memory leaks.

Oh, well, let's see how long it is down this time.

It went down, again, at 23:44:21 EST on Fri Apr 15 2022.
Since this started I've sent three e-mails. One was never answered and two basically replied with, "not my problem." If anyone knows the system admin. at Indiana University, would you be kind enough to let them know their message board is in need of some serious maintenance.
Thanks!

One of the problems that comes with old age is you don't sleep well, so I'm up and down all night, most nights.
