Subject: rtl8187: kernel oops when leds enabled
Date: Mon, 26 Oct 2009 11:17:00 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4AE5BD6C.2050303@gmail.com> (raw)

Using kernel 2.6.31 and compat-wireless stable 2.6.32_rc5 I get this 
kernel oops nearly 100% of the time when I unplug the device.  I have 
tried with the device down, up, and while transmitting, here are the 
three oopses.  Sorry it took me so long for this report, it is an odd 
bug.  When I was running older kernel/compat-wireless this oops was 
about 4-5 screens longs so I couldn't take a picture.  Additionally I 
took the advice of a few of the list members to try the crashkernel 
feature (which is AWESOME  btw) but it doesn't work for this oops.  Let 
me be more specific, I can trigger an oops and the crash kernel kicks 
in, but with this oops the crash kernel never kicks in so I am guessing 
this is bad news.

I'm honestly a little surprised that no one has bothered to reproduce 
this in the month since I reported it but maybe it is more unique to my 
setup than it seems.

Hope these pictures are readable enough to be useful.

I can fairly well generate this error at will and I'm available to test 
reproducing the bug in any possible situation which is suggested and/or 
test patches to fix.

Thanks,
Rick
