| |
Dear Thomas and other people,
After experiencing problems with many post 2.6.38 kernels with X when I used Firefox to see any webpage that used some of the new HTML5 features (Firefox freeze completely X and I could only log in remotely with SSH), I took some time to see where things went wrong and, to cut a long story short, I bisected the kernel and I found that a commit of yours was the first one that introduced a problem with my system:

Here I have the dmesg output slightly edited with the points that I think that are the most relevant to the problem. Please note that my understanding of devices/hardware is next to nothing and I may have cut important parts.

I see that the commit in question is one in a long chain of the genirq facelift. Could I help with getting this fixed for this desktop of mine? Apparently, the rewrite/shorter version didn't preserve all the same behaviour...
I hope that I did my homework right bisecting, recompiling, etc. the kernel. If not, please advise.
I am willing to test with whatever you want me to.
Thanks, Rogério Brito.
