Kernel 2.4.0-test12 hang

Kernel 2.4.0-test12 hang

[John Summerfield]

This kernel
VERSION = 2
PATCHLEVEL = 4
SUBLEVEL = 0
EXTRAVERSION = -test12

Sometimes locks solid (alt-sysrq doesn't work), sometimes less so (alt-sysrq 
does work) but more often reboots when a user (me with my usual account, me 
with an alternate little-user account) logs in and starts XFree, or logs in 
through kdm.

I've reverted to an earlier build (vmlinuz.old) of the same kernel and all is 
well again.

I don't have the old configuration file (.config) to compare with; the config 
that fails follows at the end of this description.


What I changed is a few network options; I'm setting up to play with uml and 
chose options to allow ethertap and TUN. I also turned on the netfilter stuff, 
and forwarding/masq

My video adaptor is i740-based, the motherboard an ASUS P2L97-S with BIOS 1010 
beta 3 (I have been thinking of replacing my PII-233 with a Celeron, but 
haven't done so).

Re: Kernel 2.4.0-test12 hang

[Patrizio Bruno]

I had the same problem on my machine, I solved unloading agpgart and drm
(r128.o for me, cause I have a Rage 128 video card), I think there's a bug
into the XFree drm support, but when I post the problem I received no reply.
