But I've installed the most recent kernel update on Friday anyway, so we'll see... (I always thought that before the introduction of the blinking LED on panic I could use the keyboard to switch consoles, possibly seeing what syslog wrote to tty10...) Couldn't the panic routine save the kernel message buffer somewhere? HP-UX can do that for years, so the OS saves it (crash dump) on next boot. Even Windows/XP can do something like that. -- 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.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=340136#c4 --- Comment #4 from Ulrich Windl 2007-11-14 06:06:08 MST --- Maybe I should really do it: With a new kernel (2.6.22.12-0.1-default) the machine got a panic again. Not really a trace in syslog, but I noticed several of these messages: kernel: evdev: no more free evdev devices kernel: input: failed to attach handler evdev to device input81, error: -23 (I'm using an USB KVM switch to toggle between two computers; maybe 81 switches are too many... ;-) ) -- 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.

Either way, it wouldn't hurt to take it out of the mix. -- 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.
