I need the patches shown here, from J.A. Magallón, to have 2.6.9-rc4-mm1 running on my TiBook (but they are slightly wrong). http://lkml.org/lkml/2004/10/11/111 Without this patches, I'm having one error like: Oct 11 21:35:12 marlow Oops: kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#148] Oct 11 21:35:12 marlow NIP: C001AA98 LR: C0016CBC SP: D7E97F10 REGS: d7e97e60 TRAP: 0300 Not tainted Oct 11 21:35:12 marlow MSR: 00001032 EE: 0 PR: 0 FP: 0 ME: 1 IR/DR: 11 Oct 11 21:35:12 marlow DAR: 00015380, DSISR: 40000000 Oct 11 21:35:12 marlow TASK = dfece610[8077] 'apache2' THREAD: d7e96000Last syscall: 156 Oct 11 21:35:12 marlow GPR00: 00015380 D7E97F10 DFECE610 00000002 000054E0 00000004 D7E97F18 0F8E0F7C Oct 11 21:35:12 marlow GPR08: 00000000 00015380 000054E0 C0310000 82004422 1006B304 0FA29334 101A27A0 Oct 11 21:35:12 marlow GPR16: 0FA293B8 3003DDA0 101A2700 0FA293BC FFFFF000 1016E178 0FA29328 0FA2B8BC Oct 11 21:35:12 marlow GPR24: 101A2DC0 C00054E0 00000000 DFECE610 FFFFFFEA 101A2DC0 C03205B8 D7E97F10 Oct 11 21:35:12 marlow NIP [c001aa98] profile_hit+0x40/0x54 Oct 11 21:35:12 marlow LR [c0016cbc] setscheduler+0xf4/0x2b0 Oct 11 21:35:12 marlow Call trace: Oct 11 21:35:12 marlow [c00054e0] ret_from_syscall+0x0/0x44 three times per second or so, though the kernel works enough to have me shutting it down orderly. When I logged into gnome, the Oops was not always in apache, but sometimes in nautilus or other apps. The patch he sent does not work for non SMP configs (cut&paste error?) The one I attach works for my laptop, while not changing the SMP part, AFAIK. This mm kernel is looking very stable, and I'll give it a try not rebooting it till tomorrow or till I see some problems with my firewire device (still giving problems for time to time here). The patch is against rc4-mm1. Regards -- Santiago Gala High Sierra Technology, SLU
