Not really, sorry. I usually start at mm.patch when I don't have a clue. It mm.patch fails then pop off all the x86 patches (down to git-ipwireless_cs.patch). If mm.patch doesn't fail then push on all the memory management patches (up to mm-test-and-set-zone-reclaim-lock-before-starting-cleanup.patch). Two iterations should get you into the culprit zone. But please do bisect it. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
