2.5.69-mm1 is fine, 2.5.69-mm2 panics after a while even under very
light load.

Machine: 2.4GHz Pentium IV UP,
network card: 3Com Corporation 3c905C-TX/TX-M [Tornado] (rev 78)
video: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV100 QY [Radeon 7000/VE]

Kernel config details:
UP, no module support, devfs, preempt, console on radeonfb

I got the OOPS this way:
boot normally (with X and network), switch to console
and log in, play nethack on the console until it oopses.
It will oops while in X too, but then there's nothing
visible to write down.

This is what I managed to write down. The first part scrolled
off screen with no scrollback - and no logfiles due to the
"not syncing" part:

Do you have AF_UNIX built modular?

Could you try testing with the slabification patch backed out?

Thanks.

This may be the same thing reported in
<[email protected]> earlier, it seems to happen
in 2.5.69 base. Interesting that he has it working in mm1, perhaps the
module just didn't get loaded.

Of course it could be another problem.

It is definitely _not_ the modular AF_UNIX thing,
for the third time - I don't use modules at all.
My kernel doesn't even support module loading.

And it is a netfilter problem. mm2 and mm3 are nice
and stable when I don't select netfilter for compilation.
