    Same for me on one of our single Xeon with 2.6.7-rc1. Using SysRq-T I
    was able to track it somehow down to the following situation:

    modprobe D C201AD20 0 3735 2415 (NOTLB)
    f6b51f0c 00000082 00000000 c201ad20 c201a0a0 00008124 00000002 00000000
    f7c03000 f6b51ee4 f8bda434 c04b5dc0 c201ad20 00000000 00000000 8ce9c0c0
    000f431a c03b8d80 f75fccd0 f75fce80 00000246 00000003 f6b50000 f7c03000
    Call Trace:
    [<f8bdb46d>] ipmi_register_smi+0x22a/0x386 [ipmi_msghandler]
    [<f8b570a6>] init_one_smi+0x1e6/0x4c2 [ipmi_si]
    [<f8b270c2>] init_ipmi_si+0xc2/0x203 [ipmi_si]
    [<c0137910>] sys_init_module+0x116/0x24d
    [<c0106053>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb

    modprobe hangs at linux-2.6.7-rc1/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c:1727
    wait_event((*intf)->waitq, ((*intf)->curr_channel>=IPMI_MAX_CHANNELS));

    This event should be fired by channel_handler(), but isn't for some
    unknown reason. I verified this by adding some printk() there, which
    wheren't shown.

    When I tried a 2.4 kernel with the patches from openipmi.sf.net, I
    was somehow able to use IPMI, but got into problems later.

    Any idea, what I can do to track the problem further down?
