After you won't able to find any log messeges ! Try to test this on kernel compiled with kdb so that when you got crash it will go into kdb and will give you prompt to take a look at the log messages ! (Actually I can't test it currently on uni-processor kernel with preemption enabled and kdb as I don't have machine ready for this now :( ) > <snip> > > I have tried it on Uni-processor machine. > Means you can only get preemption (enabling SMP is of no use for you). Are you testing from the terminal without running X ? or getting this problem with X running ? -- Fawad Lateef -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
