Hi Ingo, Starting X (autostarted with GDM) manages to lock up my system (requiring a hard reset) after the first few tree merges of the window, and bisection shows:
----------------- 19ef9309273d26cb005cb23e6a370353dca91099 is first bad commit commit 19ef9309273d26cb005cb23e6a370353dca91099 Author: Ingo Molnar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Fri Jan 25 21:08:34 2008 +0100 printk: use ktime_get() printk timestamps: use ktime_get(). Some platforms have a functioning clocksource function only after they are done with early bootup, so delay this until out of SYSTEM_BOOTING state. it's also inherently safe now, as any bugs in this area will be caught by the printk recursion checks. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----------------- as the first bad commit. I have no idea why that would cause problems, so it could also be some timing-related problem that just happened to bisect to this patch. I will try advancing to the head of Linus' tree and then reverting this patch to make sure it fixes the problem, but I figured I'd send this first to see if it is obvious to anyone. -- Kevin Winchester -- 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/
