Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.20
On powerpc64 machines, when mouseemu runs (32 bits), it causes the
kernel to crash when moving the mouse.
The crash happens somewhere in do_gettimeofday, probably getting passed a bogus
timeval pointer,
I haven't had time to investigate in details yet. I suspect it's a 32/64 bits
conversion bug in uinput.
Disabling mouseemu on powerpc64 is a workaround for now. I'll update this
report when I find the
actual kernel bug.
** Affects: linux-source-2.6.20 (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
