Good day!

Hit this oops and thought you all might like to look at it:
Kernel version 2.4.13 vanilla with Robert Love's Premptive Patch.

ksymoops 2.4.3 on i686 2.4.13-p1.  Options used
     -V (default)
     -k /proc/ksyms (default)
     -l /proc/modules (default)
     -o /lib/modules/2.4.13-p1/ (default)
     -m /boot/System.map-2.4.13-p1 (default)

Warning: You did not tell me where to find symbol information.  I will
assume that the log matches the kernel and modules that are running
right now and I'll use the default options above for symbol resolution.
If the current kernel and/or modules do not match the log, you can get
more accurate output by telling me the kernel version and where to find
map, modules, ksyms etc.  ksymoops -h explains the options.

1 warning issued.  Results may not be reliable.

The above happened after doing a checkpc -f in my startup scripts.

lp, parport_pc and parport were all modules that weren't loaded till
the checkpc ran.

I had just turned on devfs, and this happened.

Also: /dev/lp0 had incorrect (unwritable) permissions after being
created.

Hope this is helpful.

Ciao!
