I've made a quick test today: - upgraded kernel to Linux dolcevita 2.6.15-27-686 #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Sep 16 02:13:27 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux - upgraded skype to 1.3.0_37 beta - rebooted machine (without vmware modules)
Started skype. Chatted. Didn't hang. Started vmware. Chattet didn't hang. So either the problem is gone for me, or most probably, the problem needs for the kernel to have some uptime to be triggered. I will thus restart and avoid loading the vmware module for a week or 2 as to test if skype ends up hanging the machine or not. Then I will load the tainting module. -- BUG() report in getnstimeofday: soft lockup https://launchpad.net/bugs/53216 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
