The problem source has been found:
/usr/local/sbin/iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -i eth2 -j IMQ --todev 0
/usr/local/sbin/iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -o eth2 -j IMQ --todev 0

this doesn't work and causes kernel panic. Unfortunately I'm not a kernel
hacker but I think this problem is easily reproducable.
My goal is to have one queue to achive a global traffic shaping e.g. to
have a bandwidth for ingress and egress traffic in one. 2 IMQ's don't
solve the problem while it is not possible to connect them into one...

Is the shaper configuration (one IMQ for ingress and eggress traffic from
the same physical interface) WRONG or simple it is a kernel bug?

Thanks in advance,
	Thomas
