------- Comment #15 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2007-07-09 23:14 ------- You can look on kernel.org for git pointers, and do man git when you have it installed. Below is small snippet that I saved off once, but you can search the web and get tons of instructions, look for "git bisect" or better yet check out this guide and search in there: http://www.stardust.webpages.pl/files/handbook/handbook-en-0.3-rc1.pdf In short: # install git and cogito on your computer # clone Linus' tree: cg-clone \ git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git # start bisecting: cd linux-2.6 git bisect start git bisect bad v2.6.18-rc5 git bisect good v2.6.18-rc4 # start round cp /path/to/.config . make oldconfig make # install kernel, check whether it's good or bad, then: git bisect [bad|good] # start next round After at about 9 reboots, you'll have found the guilty commit ("... is first bad commit").
