David, is there any reason you believe your freezes are related to this bug? I ask because it is important to open another bug if it turns out your problems aren't this bug, so that it can be properly tracked. After you experience the freeze can you run apport-collect -p linux 446164

John, I am in total agreement with you that AA shouldn't be oopsing like this :) I will confirm that exactly what I did was on a stock AMD64 Karmic install, I unzippled that .zip into /tmp and ran ./epsxe. -- BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0040 apparmor_bprm_set_cre

Let me clarify that I had epsxe installed before the upgrade and it was working fine. When I upgraded to 9.10 is when the problem occurred. The dependencies for epsxe had nothing to do with the crash. It seems like people are semi aware of the problem as browsing through the Ubuntu epsxe install

I saw this bug after I upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10 and tried to run 'epsxe'. Once I ran 'sudo upx -d epsxe' it fixed the problem...once you run it once on the executable file, you don't have to run it again. It would seem that the new kernel has a problem with executables packaged with UPX-ULC and

John, Indeed I suspect this is linked with UPX packed executables, but that still shouldn't be able to oops the kernel. Just to verify what you did, you downloaded the linux binary distribution from http://www.epsxe.com/download.php, unpacked it and the then just tried to run .epsxe, correct?

I was getting it on a stock Karmic with no glib packages hackishly taken from Dapper. The bug seems to have something to do with UPX packed executables, as after unpacking with UPX, the oops no longer occurs. Interesting to note, I tried UPX packing a copy of everything in /usr/bin and nothing els

Hi David, I notice you were running Alpha5 (kernel 2.6.31-11.38) at the time this kernel Oops happened. Can you comment if this is still occurs with the lastest 2.6.31-13.44 Karmic kernel? I do see some apparmor patches have gone in since the Alpha5 kernel, although they're not likely related to
