I have two video cards and a SMP machine. When I compile Linux for SMP it always OOPses on boot. (Search the archives for where. Basically in vgacon_cursor...) However, with the same kernel I can boot with maxcpus=1. This is the third time I have mentioned The problem on this mailing list. Does anyone have _any_ information or suggestions? I have looked through the init code and everything there appears to be sane. I would like to track this down because it basically means that I cannot use Linux. I can't use a serial console to record the oops, but what is available I have posted to the mailing list. Laramie
