Can you bisect the kernel?
Unfortunately, I have no idea how to do this. Any documentation on bisect, for OpenSUSE with regards of patches?
I usually go this way for kernel bugs: * install kernel-vanilla * verify the bug is still there -> if not, blame openSUSE patches; exit 0 * now clone linux kernel git tree * build suse-kernel-vanilla config, boot, verify bug is still there * reset to kernel version $CURRENT-1, build, verify bug is gone * start bisecting as can be found in git bisect tutorials on the web. Note that this will take a long time, since you are always building an "all inclusive" kernel config. I usually trim the config down to what is needed on my machine and use ccache to speed up things a little bit, but I somewhat know what I'm doing there and I'm fully aware that I might not find the same bug the SUSE kernel is exhibiting by changing the configuration. Executive summary: I'm usually searching the bug in the upstream kernel, not in the suse kernel.
