No change (new oops appended... looks the same as the old one basically)

I also tried 2.5.32 and got exactly the same oops.

To reproduce...  type 'cat /dev/ttyUSB0' and hit control-C.

I have tried removing all modules except the USB serial related ones and 
get exactly the same, so I think the references to 'mousedev' are bogus 
in the oops (the taint is from the VMWare modules but I get the same 
without them so I don't think they're affecting anything).
