They're in the kernel already. That's the patch that Alan H. posted to the group against the XF sources. The XF sources and the linux sources aren't 100% in sync, and Torsten's patches are in the kernel, but not in XF yet. I'm running stock linux-2.4.17-pre8 kernel, and Red Hat 7.2 XFree 4.1. No patched anything. > Here is the oops message from the kernel. > > Dec 11 15:56:00 localhost kernel: sisfb: framebuffer at 0xd0000000, mapped > to 0xce8a3000, size 32768k > Dec 11 15:56:00 localhost kernel: sisfb: MMIO at 0xdfee0000, mapped to > 0xd08a4000, size 128k > Dec 11 15:56:00 localhost kernel: sisfb: mode is 1024x768x16, > linelength=2048 > Dec 11 15:56:00 localhost kernel: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer > dereference at virtual address 00000066 > Dec 11 15:56:00 localhost kernel: printing eip: > Dec 11 15:56:00 localhost kernel: ce89215e > Dec 11 15:56:00 localhost kernel: *pde = 00000000 > Dec 11 15:56:00 localhost kernel: Oops: 0000 > Dec 11 15:56:00 localhost kernel: CPU: 0 > Dec 11 15:56:00 localhost kernel: EIP: 0010:[<ce89215e>] Not tainted > Dec 11 15:56:00 localhost kernel: EFLAGS: 00010206 > Dec 11 15:56:00 localhost kernel: eax: 00000066 ebx: 00000001 > ecx: 0000000c edx: 00000006 > Dec 11 15:56:00 localhost kernel: esi: 00000001 edi: 00000000 > ebp: 00000016 esp: cb8d7e64 > Dec 11 15:56:01 localhost kernel: ds: 0018 es: 0018 ss: 0018 > Dec 11 15:56:01 localhost kernel: Process insmod (pid: 1089, > stackpage=cb8d7000) > Dec 11 15:56:01 localhost kernel: Stack: 0000acd4 00000011 0000000c > 0000acd4 00000011 00000a3d 00010003 0000004a > Dec 11 15:56:01 localhost kernel: 00060001 00000014 00000000 > 0000004a ce89d4a0 ce89185d 00000000 0000004a > Dec 11 15:56:01 localhost kernel: 00000016 00000014 0000acc2 > 000000ef 00000016 0000acb0 0000004a 00000000 > Dec 11 15:56:01 localhost kernel: Call Trace: [<ce89d4a0>] [<ce89185d>] > [<ce89d4a0>] [<ce8916e7>] [<ce89d4a0>] > Dec 11 15:56:01 localhost kernel: [<ce89021b>] [<ce89d4a0>] > [<ce89d180>] [<ce890361>] [<c0116035>] [<ce88d060>] > Dec 11 15:56:01 localhost kernel: [<c0106ceb>] > Dec 11 15:56:01 localhost kernel: > Dec 11 15:56:01 localhost kernel: Code: 0f b6 04 07 50 0f b7 05 bc 10 8a > ce 6a 00 50 e8 de 0f 00 00 > You need to run this oops through the ksymoops utility. Make sure that the System.map that is used corresponds to the System.map of the kernel that oopsed. It will decode the 'Call Trace' portion into functions and offsets.
