Around 1.5 MB. Is there any known problems in having a such a big module. The problem is after inserting the module, the box freezes after some time. Some times it crashes.I analyzed the oops message, but it does'nt make much sense, since the trace leads me to some other kernel code. So it looks like my module is corrupting the memory , which leads to this crash.Appreciate if someone can send me a link to fix these types of problems. Also is there any tool which can do a memwatch on the kernel space. Thanks, lnxuser2002. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.
