Subject: Re: PROBLEM: cannot get stable system since 2.6.28 kernel (amd64)
Hmm.....
Well, I think I have to apologize : it seems the "bug" was located between the
chair and the screen (and I'm not talking about the keyboard ;-) )
My original config file was taken from "official" debian 2.6.26-1-amd64
I changed and suppressed quite a lot of things with different kernel release.
Yesterday I've built a "minimalist" config file for 2.6.29-rc5 and it ran like a
charme during more than 1 hour before I shut it down with no problem at all.
Usually, the freeze happened less than 5 min after boot or even before.
To me, this means my old config file was wrong, or I disabled the "problem" by
using the new config.
tkdiff between the two files gives quite a lot of differences...
Please find them attached :
config-2.6.29-rc5 is the non-working one
config-2.6.29-rc5-phiphi is the working one
If anything looks suspicious....
Philippe
P.S. : Suresh, I'll try your patch asap (during the week I think) with the
"old" config file to see what happen anyway
