What does your kernel log say? And does this also happen with a clean kernel.org kernel? This does not happen with plain old development-sources or with mm-sources. I've attached a log from my last attempt at using gentoo-dev-sources, starting from bootup until I log out of Gnome. FWIW, the "iid OAFIID:BrokenNoType:20000808" message shows up no matter what kernel I use. Created attachment 38505 [details]
Message log while using gentoo-dev-sources up until the crash on logout
And here's the message log with my last attempt at using gentoo-dev-sources.
I think I've narrowed down the problem. It has to do with the xircom_cb module. I'm using a Xircom RBEM-56G-100 Cardbus card. If I load xircom_cb, my system hangs on logout as above. If I have xircom_tulip_cb loaded instead, which is the older version of the Tulip driver, I can log in and out without hanging but I lose networking in the process. It looks like my Gentoo system prefers to load xircom_tulip_cb at boot, as right now I have both drivers built as modules. I think this still may be a gentoo-dev-sources problem, as if I use Knoppix 3.4 and boot with the Knoppix 2.6 kernel, xircom_cb gets loaded instead of xircom_tulip_cb and there are no problems with logging in and out or with shutdown. Have you tried with the exact same .config on development-sources-2.6.8.1 ? I doubt this is a gentoo patchset issue, as we don't modify that driver as far as I can see. Ack. I copied the .config file from my gentoo-dev-sources directory over to a clean install of 2.6.8.1, and I am getting the same lockup problem with xircom_cb. I'm using a Xircom CardBus Ethernet 10/100/modem card -- RBEM56G-100. Before I mark this bug closed, where should I report this to? Please post a report to http://bugzilla.kernel.org |
