kernel version 2.6.8, from debian unstable. > What is the OOPs? They are not reproducible, i.e., they are always different every run, on a different entry point. They happen one after the other so fast that they're never recorded on /proc/kmsg. I got a screenshot (literaly, with a digital camera) on http://jrfonseca.dyndns.org/misc/bugs/radeon-core.jpg after insmod'ing radeon. It's likely that the first oops is within the loaded module, but all the others oops trash it away... I also add that insmod'ing mach64 or radeon from the linux-2.6 works just fine, so it must be some regression in linux-core. > Be sure and try with the current CVS.

I noticed the "Ignoring new-style parameters in presence of obsolete ones" warnings. What is the de-facto way to enable extra debugging info in linux-core modules?
