--- Comment #6 from Alex Chiang <achi...@canonical.com> 2010-08-18 14:42:26 --- Roman, thanks for testing again. btw, I think your bisection run was a little bit misleading. The initial crash was this: BUG: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0x00000005 IP: [<c125b489>] apci_ns_lookup+0x125/0x57e As you can see, that's not a part of my patch. I think what happened is that the patch fixed the bad logic introduced by 5d554a7bb06, and we started properly returning false on your machine, which revealed a latent bug somewhere else in ACPI. When you reverted my patch, we incorrectly returned true on your machine, thus masking the symptoms of the buggy ACPI code, allowing your machine to boot. In any case, it looks like your namespace is still broken, but at least you're not crashing anymore. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
