Hi,
I am running 2.2.12 and am running PPP 2.3.7 over a PCMCIA modem (PCMCIA 3.0.14). My machine has begun hanging recently. I'm not sure what changes preceeded the start of the hangs. The hangs seem to occur when I have an active PPP data transfer combined with mouse movement or some keyboard activity.
Anyhow, I have no idea how to track down the problem since I don't get an OOPS message or error message of any kind. Rather, everything freezes (disk, keyboard, mouse). I have to cold boot.
Do I need to set up some special kernel debugging configuration?
O have ready the oops-tracing and other kernel documentation, but this particular situation was not addressed.
Thanks,
Miles
