A number of show-stopper bugs...

Sat Sep 25 04:47:37 PDT 2004

Hei guys,

This is just an informal heads up at the moment, perhaps just to either get
a few hits with the clue bat or to inform about some nasty kernel bugs.

I have run across a number of things that produce unbootable or unstable 
kernels:

1) Loading the sound and snd_via8233 modules after boot crashed my 
machine within 30 minutes.  I first received a ca. 50Hz white noise sound 
before freezing the box and subsequent reboot.  I was using mpg123 with 
a 1024kb buffer, downloading via scp and running Mozilla. No crashdump 
available yet...  With both compiled in the kernel, things seem to be
stable.

2) Adding NETGRAPH modules to the kernel config produces unbootable kernels
in almost any configuration (trying to get the bluetooth stuff working). 
Using the kernel modules produced no working results. No crashdump yet... 

With any luck I'll get far enough here to give more concrete results with 
dumps.

dmesg, fwiw (input munged from cut-n-paste):

(yeah, the umass stuff is a bit broken, but there's a patch I just haven't 
tested yet).
