Package: linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc Version: 2.6.18-2 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system
I have upgraded my box with a 2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc kernel, and its the third time my box completely freeze after some time (between 10 minutes and 1 hour): no more keyboard, no more mouse, no more network activity. The system just hang forever. No specific messages in any logs (I checked syslog, messages and kern.log). I was just writing mail (emacs+mutt+postfix), nothing special. I do not remember getting such a behavior with any computer running Linux since my early days using the SLS distribution. I run Debian sid on a Mac Powerbook Aluminium (PowerBook5,4) and am connected to my LAN through the airport (bcm53xx) card. I wonder if it may come from the bcm53xx driver (see bugs #392065). I switched back to a 2.6.17-2-vserver-powerpc kernel in order to try if it comes from the kernel, since then everything seems right (no freeze yet). -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: powerpc (ppc) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-2-vserver-powerpc Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc depends on: ii initramfs-tools [linux-initra 0.60 tools for generating an initramfs ii mkvmlinuz 24 create a kernel to boot a PowerPC ii module-init-tools 3.2.2-3 tools for managing Linux kernel mo ii yaird [linux-initramfs-tool] 0.0.12-15 Yet Another mkInitRD Versions of packages linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc recommends: ii util-vserver 0.30.210-10 user-space tools for Linux-Vserver -- debconf information: linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc/preinst/failed-to-move-modules-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc: linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc/postinst/bootloader-test-error-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc: linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc/postinst/old-dir-initrd-link-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc: true linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc/postinst/old-initrd-link-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc: true linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc/preinst/abort-install-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc: linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc/postinst/depmod-error-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc: false linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc/postinst/depmod-error-initrd-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc: false linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc/prerm/removing-running-kernel-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc: true linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc/postinst/old-system-map-link-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc: true linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc/preinst/initrd-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc: linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc/postinst/create-kimage-link-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc: true linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc/postinst/kimage-is-a-directory: linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc/preinst/lilo-has-ramdisk: shared/kernel-image/really-run-bootloader: true linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc/preinst/overwriting-modules-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc: true linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc/prerm/would-invalidate-boot-loader-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc: true linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc/preinst/lilo-initrd-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc: true linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc/preinst/elilo-initrd-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc: true linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc/preinst/abort-overwrite-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc: linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc/preinst/bootloader-initrd-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc: true linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc/preinst/already-running-this-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc: linux-image-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc/postinst/bootloader-error-2.6.18-1-vserver-powerpc: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
