Subject: Oops with minicom and USB serial with Linux 2.6.30-rc8


A new kernel this morning.  Using a Prolific single-port serial
adapter to talk to a BeagleBoard.  I regularly get this when I hit the
Beagle's reset button.  I'm not sure I trust the traceback; I'll
rebuild with frame pointers and see if I can get a better one.
