While trying yesterdays 3.17 git snapshot on a i5-2400 + intel graphics computer, it seems to go into soft lockup. Still pings but no ssh to it any more, and active ssh session got the following kind of NMI watchdog soft lockups during aptitude list update:

This was remote reboot into the new kernel, so only graphics usage is kms console on i915 + kdm login screen. Only user-initiaded action was ssh connection with dmesg, su -, aptitude and aptitude list update from there. -- Meelis Roos ([email protected]) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
