I installed from the KDE Live CD onto a 32-bit VM using VirtualBox 2.2.0 with 64-bit 11.1 as the host. The dump for the oops is: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) IP: [<c013052a>] do_exit+0x0/0x272 *pde = 00000000 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP last sysfs file: /sys/module/usbcore/sections/__verbose_strings Modules linked in: preloadtrace(N) ohci_hcd rtc_cmos rtc_core rtc_lib ehci_hcd usbcore sd_mod crc_t10dif edd at a_piix ahci libata scsi_mod ext3 mbcache jbd fan thermal processor thermal_sys hwmon Supported: Yes Pid: 712, comm: usleep Tainted: G N (2.6.29-6-default #1) VirtualBox EIP: 0060:[<c013052a>] EFLAGS: 00010346 CPU: 0 EIP is at do_exit+0x0/0x272 EAX: 00000000 EBX: 00000000 ECX: 00000000 EDX: efa38030 ESI: 00000000 EDI: 08048530 EBP: ee3bdf94 ESP: ee3bdf85 DS: 007b ES: 007b FS: 00d8 GS: 0033 SS: 0069 Process usleep (pid: 712, ti=ee3bc000 task=efa38030 task.ti=ee3bc000) Stack: c0000000 00ee3854 30000000 a8080485 14ee3bdf 00c01308 94000000 30bfd35f b0080485 4eee3bdf 00c01308 e2ee3bc0 00c01046 00000000 f4000000 94b7fe6f 30bfd35f f8080485 fcbfd35e 7b000000 7b000000 00000000 fc000000 22000000 Call Trace: Inexact backtrace: Code: 81 05 80 09 5b c0 00 00 00 01 fb 66 66 66 90 66 66 66 90 90 43 75 10 89 f0 e8 77 f0 ff ff eb 07 bb fe ff ff ff eb ad 5b 5e 5d c3 <cc> 89 e5 57 56 53 89 c3 83 ec 04 64 8b 35 00 d0 60 c0 89 f0 e8 EIP: [<c013052a>] do_exit+0x0/0x272 SS:ESP 0069:ee3bdf85 ---[ end trace 6bd1277f8eefbbf8 ]--- The OS appears to operate normally despite the oops; however, it will not shut down. After it logs the "system will be shutdown" message, the KDE GUI of the host is locked. I can, however, switch to the CTRL/ALT/F1 console, log in as root, and kill the VirtualBox process. At that point, the GUI is normal. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot 2. 3. Actual Results: No special setup necessary. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
