Some of the code in ksymoops might help here, although as you say, it's a moving target and probably more effort than it's worth. ksymoops has a lot of the important structures defined, and would at least give you a starting point for figuring out what ended up where. You'd then need to figure out where the stack started, and start walking frames from there. You should also look at the kernel header files (different from the normal /usr/include). They have a lot of the kernel private structures defined, which you'd need to interpret the process table layout, etc. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
