Hello, For the past couple of 2.5.x kernel versions I have been seeing an odd Oops on boot of a newly built kernel. The Oops only happens on stock kernels from ftp.kernel.org, if I wait until the -dj patch for the version in question it always boots fine. I guess the means that somewhere the framebuffer code in -dj is different enough from mainline to allow my machine to boot and to work perfectly. With a mainline kernel my system will start to boot and then as soon as video switches from text to framebuffer the Oops happens, the logo in the top left never even gets drawn. Attached is a copy of the oops which has been run through ksymoops already. Thank you for any help. Jordan
