Please try vanilla-sources-2.6.13_rc6. Are you able to take a photo of the oops or capture it by some other means? (In reply to comment #1) > Please try vanilla-sources-2.6.13_rc6. Are you able to take a photo of the oops > or capture it by some other means? Same result with vanilla-sources-2.6.13_rc6. I have been hearing friends and family, but no one has a digital camera :-( Perhaps I could manually write some of it down, but I have no idea of what is important. Ok. Here's a sample kernel oops:

Extracting the useful info from that, basically drop everything that is a
meaningless number. You might write down something like:
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ...
Oops: 0002 [#1]
EIP is at _spin_lock+0x3/0x20
Process rmdir
Call trace:
show_stack
show_registers
die
do_page_fault
error_code
ignore_helper
inotify_inode_is_dead
vfs_rmdir
sys_rmdir
syscall_call

Please file a bug against 2.6.13-rc6 at http://bugzilla.kernel.org and post the new bug URL here. Include the transcription you wrote here (which is perfect!) and mention which was the last kernel version which worked fine.

Here it is: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5094 Thanks. Will keep an eye on it. Is this issue still present with recent kernels, say 2.6.21? |
