You should report it as a bug. If you have verbose bug reporting enabled in kernel config, you should get an oops message along with this one. (If not, enable it, recompile kernel and try to reproduce the problem). Run the message through ksymoops and send the result along with description of situation when it occured to network subsystem maintainer (and cc linux-kernel and linux-net mailing lists on vger.kernel.org). You will find apropriate person to tell in MAINTAINERS file in kernel source. You will find some hints on what to include in bug report in file REPOTING-BUG that you find there too. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jan 'Bulb' Hudec <bulb@ucw.cz> -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
