Subject: 2.4.20-rc1: oops in drivers/acpi/namespace/nswalk.c (with patch)
Date: Wed, 06 Nov 2002 21:30:15 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3DC9FA67.2000303@zytor.com> (raw)

I have one machine which has been reliably oopsing in
drivers/acpi/namespace/nswalk.c -- this patch makes it work, but I have
no idea why. Either way, I thought someone would probably want to look
at it.
