Following a re-compilation of my kernel (2.0.36) pon is behaving erratically, to say the least. After a reboot it works quite often the first time, less often the second, rarely the third... and once it's failed, it always fails after that.
When it fails, it spews out a couple of screenfuls of something too fast to capture and then hangs - sometimes ^C kills it, sometimes ^D, sometimes I have to reboot. The straces of failed and successful connections seem identical (except for pids and times, of course). This is the syslog account (the same every time, I think): Apr 17 00:17:07 gennes kernel: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address c0000000 Apr 17 00:17:07 gennes kernel: current->tss.cr3 = 00101000, %cr3 = 00101000 Apr 17 00:17:07 gennes kernel: *pde = 00102067 Apr 17 00:17:07 gennes kernel: *pte = 00000000 Apr 17 00:17:07 gennes kernel: Oops: 0000 Apr 17 00:17:07 gennes kernel: CPU: 0 Apr 17 00:17:07 gennes kerneld: error: exit: Identifier removed If anyone recognizes the symptoms, I'd be most grateful for pointers in the direction of a solution.
