I've got some kernal modules that were compiled for redhat 6.0, (kernel 2.2.5-15) that I would like to run under Mandrake 7.1 (Kernel 2.2.15-mdk4) Unfortunatly I can't get the source code for the modules to compile them myself. Two of the three modules load ok using insmod -f but the third crashed the whole system and displays the following: Oops: 0002 [Status of CPU registers] Stack: [Stack contents] Call trace: [what appears a memory dump] Code: 89 02 85 [lots more numbers] Aiee, killing interrupt handler Kernel panic: Attempted to kill the idle task In interrupt handler - not syncing (Personally I think an exclaimation point after Aiee would have been a nice touch :) Is there any way to work around this, such as trying to recompile the kernel with different options? (I've no idea which options to try here.) What does the -mdk4 in the kernel version refer to - is it a sub-version of teh main kernel, and would downloading the source for the plain kernel and using that instead be of any help? -- _____________________________________________________________ Network Operations Engineer - Big Pond Advance Satellite Ericsson Australia - Level 5, 184 The Broadway, Sydney 2000 Ph: +61-416-085-390 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- SLUG - Sydney Linux Users Group Mailing List - http://www.slug.org.au To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe in the text
