confirmed on my machine that the issue is with r8192se by modprobe -r r8192se_pci after this powertop fails to trigger the kernel panic. reloading the module gives the old, crashy behaviour. tried with the new driver version and the problem is still there! at least I think so -- it's hard form e to remove all traces of my old dkms build system. goign to try that again now. I think an upstream bug report is in order but I can't figure out where to do that, if anyone has any clues i'd appreciate it. Also probably if the powertop people could tell us what powertop is doing, it might be possible to stop the system from spontaneously probing (I imagine it has something to do with power management) and causing the crash unexpectedly. matt -- kernel panic - kernel stack corrupted https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/592745 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
