Hi Jim You simply write a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the begiggning of the mail, before anything else, you write:
Package: kernel-patch-openvz Severity: important And then you describe the fault. It is as simple as that. :) On Fri, Sep 14, 2007 at 05:25:43PM -0400, Jim Archer wrote: > Hi Ola... > > As embarrassing as this is, I have to admit that I can't figure out how to > open a bug report using the link provided below.

I would like to know what you did when the kernel crashed, so I can debug the problem further. > Another engineer restarted the system, but because he was accessing via an > IPMI card (so no text console) he was unable to copy out the associated > information from the kernel.

With the above explanation I assume that you can write one on your own. :) In the meantime I have looked through the VZ patch and have not found anything obvious that explains your hostname problem. It seems like all the places where system_utsname has really been replaced with utsname() and the utsname() function is identical with the original vz patch. So it is likely something else. However the patch is huge so I may have made a couple of mistakes.
