At least *you* know that everything you see are hex numbers, th= e OCR does not. Eventhough it's quite annoying to do that by hand, it generally takes less than 5 minutes to retype an oops, which is not tha= t much. Of course, the serial cable to another machine to get a panic dum= p is the easiest solution ;-) Willy From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 Return-Path: Received: (majordomo@vger.kernel.org) by vger.kernel.org via listexpand id S1751152AbZHREvW (ORCPT ); Tue, 18 Aug 2009 00:51:22 -0400 Received: (majordomo@vger.kernel.org) by vger.kernel.org id S1750953AbZHREvV (ORCPT ); Tue, 18 Aug 2009 00:51:21 -0400 Received: from 1wt.eu ([62.212.114.60]:44420 "EHLO 1wt.eu" rhost-flags-OK-OK-OK-OK) by vger.kernel.org with ESMTP id S1750861AbZHREvV (ORCPT ); Tue, 18 Aug 2009 00:51:21 -0400 Date: Tue, 18 Aug 2009 06:50:48 +0200 From: Willy Tarreau To: =?iso-8859-1?Q?Martin-=C9ric?= Racine Cc: Ingo Molnar , "Rafael J.
