When something oopses I see the xmon prompt, but I can't type anything - machine completely freezed. SysReq commands also are disabled and I must hit the hard reset button. I disabled xmon so oops messages show up on the console and in the logs, but I have problems with them too. ksymoops spits a lot of warnings about non-matching addresses, etc. and the function where the oops occurred is always "may not be reliable". To locate the bug I put a lot of printk in my driver and - murphy's surprise - oopses do not have a backtrace anymore, just one unresolvable address. #:-6 I'm using 2.4.21p4 on a blue G3. I recompiled Kernel, modules, ALSA to be sure System.map is the right one. Bye. ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
