[Opensim-users] [Opensim-dev] Mono stability on OpenSuSE 13.2

[Oren Hurvitz]

The problem is that Mono often crashes on newer Linux kernels. OpenSuSe
13.1 comes with Linux kernel 3.11 (works ok), and OpenSuSe 13.2 comes with
Linux kernel 3.16 (Mono crashes). In my tests, kernel 13.14 also crashes.

You should be able to install kernel 3.11 over OpenSuse 13.2, if you want;
that would solve your Mono problems.

Of course, the *real* solution is for Mono to get fixed. But who knows when
that will happen.
