As far as NVidia drivers goes, those are the only drivers besides VESA that work for me, the 'nv' driver is completely inoperative.
Then reproduce with VESA and without the nvidia kernel module, please.
The netconsole instructions in comment 33 appear to be incomplete - netstat does no listening of receiving of packets, it only displays what is listening or present. Thus, you'll need a socat or netcat invocation to listen on port 6666 (udp) and record data, at least that's what I'm getting out of the docs.
Oh, it's a typo, it should be "netcat". Thanks for noticing! Appending the (now hopefully correct) recipe to prevent confusion: ------ On the "monitoring" machine (i.e. not the one with the bug): ifconfig (record the "HWaddr" and "inet addr:" fields) rcSuSEfirewall2 stop (or, if the machine is not running openSUSE, disable the firewall in an appropriate way, in the worst case by running iptables -F) netcat -u -l -p 6666 On the "debugging" machine: echo '9 4 1 7' > /proc/sys/kernel/printk modprobe netconsole netconsole=@/,@INETADDR/HWADDR (replace INETADDR and HWADDR with the values you recorded above) ------ -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
