For me, I never had an actual oops. Just a note in dmesg that pax was killing command-line processes at random. Running services didn't seem to be affected, but I could go run grep or something and it'd just abruptly terminate. Kinda hard to file a bug on that and not have it closed as WONTFIX :) -- Joshua Kinard Gentoo/MIPS [email protected] 4096R/D25D95E3 2011-03-28 "The past tempts us, the present confuses us, the future frightens us.
