before checking out so that you can reproduce the first bug?
The output from `uname -a' contains a prefix of the commit hash
of the source code from which the kernel was built
$ uname -a
DragonFly X335 2.13-DEVELOPMENT DragonFly v2.13.0.929.g2a1f9-DEVELOPMENT #0:
Mon Jan 16 18:02:19 JST 2012 root@X335:/usr/obj/build/usr/src/sys/SMP i386
The string `2a1f9' after `g' before `-DEVELOPMENT' is the one you need.
If you need the `uname -a' output from the older kernel, try this:
$ strings /boot/kernel.old/kernel |tail -n4
DragonFly v2.13.0.796.g4090d-DEVELOPMENT #0: Wed Jan 4 22:59:22 JST 2012
root@X335:/usr/obj/build/usr/src/sys/SMP
DragonFly
2.13-DEVELOPMENT
You can use this string to checkout the previous version:
$ cd /usr/src
$ git checkout 2a1f9
Note: checking out '2a1f9'.
(and long message here mentioning you're not on a particular branch
and an instruction on how to create a new branch)
You can go back to the original branch, say, `master', by
$ git checkout master
Finally, Git remembers what you did to your repository for you for a while,
so you don't even have to remember what version you have now before updating
to the latest:
$ git reflog
e27434d HEAD@{0}: checkout: moving from
2a1f96b998a7a95f220d7a527c2f0a7b9e42be3a to master
2a1f96b HEAD@{1}: checkout: moving from master to 2a1f9
e27434d HEAD@{2}: pull: Fast-forward
2a1f96b HEAD@{3}: pull: Fast-forward

For the record, here's the core bit: to mark your currently checked out version use git tag bug_foo; if you just want to know the commit ID use e.g. git show or git log (top entry) – in the end both ways are equivalent only that with git tag the note is within the git repo. /Matthias

Well, /var/log/messages* contains the uname -a output from the previos boots. Look for the word `Copyright' and a few lines after that. The messages file may (or may not) also contain the panic message, so you can use it as the guide if you forgot when the panic happened. Cheers.

I don't know. Something broken intel or drm.
