Hello
I am trying to learn kernel debugging and one of the approaches I have come up
with is to introduce situations in the sys code by which the compiled
kernel is buggy
and will panic.
My query is what are the typical bugs that I can introduce in say by
which the kernel
would panic.
Thanks

Others already mentioned you about the vulnerability found in v2.2.2.

hello everyone,
I'm running linux-firefox on FBSD 6.1-i386. I also have diablo-jdk installed.
When I sym-link (what I think are) the java plugins for moz. into the

I am having a strange issue. I have a samba server (freebsd) that has
been running fine for quite some time no errors to report. I replaced
the system drives with fresh install of Freebsd
6.1 and updated to the current security branch. This was same version
of freebsd previously on the server.

Depends. If the device is present when the system boots, yes. If it

I suggest you have your ADSL modem changed to a
