[not necessarily a very recent regression, used 2.6.19 kernels before...]

Hi all,

wondered why my main internet server (headless!) didn't come up properly
on a new 2.6.23-rc8-mm2
(connections almost completely refused: firewalling not executed due to
earlier OOPS?).
Upon LILO emergency fallback into an older version (2.6.16...) saw this
in /var/log/messages:

Since EIP is c029ad8a, following the code flow it clearly looks to me
as if it's the
        BUG_ON(!dev->nd_net);
check which caused the BUG message.

lspci (NOTE: on 2.6.16!!):
00:09.0 Network controller: Cologne Chip Designs GmbH ISDN network controller 
[HFC-PCI] (rev 02)

I used to have an ISA-based card (Teles?) in there, replaced by the PCI one
about 2 years ago.

I intend to still try to get it up and running with 2.6.23-rc8-mm2 today
(with some workarounds hopefully, maybe even disabling ISDN completely)...

The last running kernel (I didn't have newer ones in between), up for some 110
days was 2.6.19-cks2 (IOW, I cannot quite say that
"this is an important regression, it has been broken very recently").

Thanks,
