I've had reproduceable and repeatable problems with test9 -most of them- that always leave my laptop stuck. Only sysrq-o seems to respond. It seems it is related to the truncate proble that arised in test7 series. When I'm reading my email in an xterm with pine and I expunge a mailbox, if I'm too fast with my fingers and click several keys in advance -like the down arrow to check for new email- the system stop working. No oops, now working keybord, only rebooting through magic key. I've reproduced it like 20 times, every time I boot with test9-pre7 or less. test8 doesn't seem to have the same problem. I'm going to compile test9-pre8, but I haven't seen any change that seems related to this bug. If someone needs debugging, please provide me with the proper patch or instructions as I cannot get any oops. I'll carry on the necessary tests.
