Hello everybody,
kernel 2.6.21.1 makes my machine Oops about 20 seconds after KDE 3,5 is brought up showing its graphical login (kdm):
lspci -v, based on a "sane" kernel 2.6.22-rc2 or 2.6.20.11 (with both of them the Oops does not happen at all) looks like this:

Please notice:
On an Intel P4 machine with but Intel chipset and Broadcom b44 NIC that Oops does not happen in connection with 2.6.21.1!
Questions:
1. Does anyone have a similar machine (AMD Athlon 1800 XP processor) with similar hardware configuration?
2. If yes, can anyone confirm that Oops problem in connection with that similar hardware architecture and kernel 2.6.21.1.
Regards
Uwe

Please include the output out of the actual oops message. It has all
sorts of information that will help track this down.
The "REPORTING-BUGS" file in the root of the kernel source directory
has an example format that covers the sorts of stuff that they want to
see.
Thanks,

We're completely blind unless we can see that oops info. If it reached
/var/log/messages then please send it.
If it didn't please set up netconsole (Documentation/networking/netconsole.txt)
If for some reason that isn't possible then you couldry switching to
the vga concole (alt-ctl-F1) before the ooops and see if the output
is visible on the VGA screen. If it is there, a digital photo will suit
(you can email it to me and I can stick it on a server somewhere if
you like). The last option is to write the oops info down with a
pencil and type it in again, but that's painful (all the hex addresses
in the stack backtrace can be omitted)
Thanks.

Maybe it's the sis900-network-driver? See patch
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=blob;f=queue-2.6.21/sis900-allocate-rx-replacement-buffer-before-rx-operation.patch;h=ee9db79405db0144953eab964d34326fcc1b09c8;hb=05ab505f2909acf3a614d3e6a32271c4c1f8a69d

This is probably the sis900 oops that is fixed in 2.6.21.2rc1.
