Even if there is a hardware problem with a device, shouldn't the kernel handle it (e.g. something like a timeout + an error), at least to get some useful report about the problem? Except the processes that tried to accede to the video controller (and froze by doing that), the system was fine: I could still work with the machine via SSH and didn't notice any other problem. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
