Comment 1 Tim Yamin (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-01-09 16:14:07 UTC 
Can you please emerge ksymoops, and do: ``ksymoops < file_with_OOPS > file_out'' on the kernel which is causing this and paste file_out into this bug? file_with_OOPS should contain the stack data from your initial post.

Comment 3 Axel Reimann 2004-01-10 02:21:31 UTC 
Ok, I did as you said (see attachment above).
Even though I saw ksymoops output for the first time,
it looked rather dubious to me (lots of warnings).
Therefore, I decided to reboot the box in order to 
reproduce the error and have a clean syslog to begin 
with.
Funny thing: This error is NOT reproducible.
I've rebooted a couple of times now, and everytime
lm-sensors started (and worked) as advertised.
Side note: Tonight the automated update has 
updated a couple of packages and init scripts on this box.
So, while this mysteriously fixed my problem, I now caught
bug #37375, but that's a different story...

If no one else encountered my problem, I apologize for
wasting your time. The good thing is, however, that next
time I'll report a kernel hickup, I know now right away how to
use ksymoops to make it more useful.

Thank you for helping me out!
Comment 4 Tim Yamin (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-01-10 06:34:40 UTC 
Those warnings may be the reason you got the OOPS - the symbols don't match for some reason in the running i2c-core and the one you have on disk - which may explain why it OOPSes as it can't manage to cooperate. Not sure how it randomly fixed itself, though. I'm resolving this as INVALID, if you get this again, please reopen this bug.
