Eg, code line, backtrace, stack, etc? These are _vital_ to interpret what went wrong. Also, it'd be good if you could supply the corresponding System.map file for the exact kernel you were running (or alternatively use ksymoops to decode the values in [< >], or look them up yourself and post the results here). Note that if you're sending the System.map file, the mailing list has a limit of 40KB per message, so you may have to compress it. _____ |_____| ------------------------------------------------- ---+---+- | | Russell King linux@arm.linux.org.uk --- --- | | | | http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/ / / | | +-+-+ --- -+- / | THE developer of ARM Linux |+| /|\ / | | | --- | +-+-+ ------------------------------------------------- /\\\ |
