This is the 2nd time in a row that a stable kernel (3.7.8 currently) crashes in such a way that even the sys-rq key doesn't work any longer. Found nothing in the log. The screen shot is here [1]. First time this issue was reported in [2]. The bug seems to be triggered by the BOINC client - I'm running the alpha version of it [3]. I'm wondering whether the sprintf issue discussed in [4] is the trigger for the bug (I attached that message here b/c the BOINC devs doesn't allow just even read access to the mail archive w/o registering). @boinc_devs IMO it would be helpful to store the pid of the BOINC clients to stdoutdae.txt too, or where can I find it ?
