Hi,

mm2 (or even mm1 or even vanilla, have not tested (long enough)) locks 
hard on my and someone else' machine. Sometimes we get this line in our 
logs before the lock happens:

kernel: Badness in pci_find_subsys at drivers/pci/search.c:132

Any ideas? Or do you need detailed kernel config and dmesg? I thought 
you might have an idea which atch caused this... My and his system are 
quite differnt. Major Common element seems only use of Athlon XP. He has 
VIA KT based system and I have nforce2. I thought it might be APIC, but 
I also got a lock up without APIC. (Though it seems more stable without 
APIC.)

If you could send us the stack backtrace that would help.  Make sure that
you have CONFIG_KALLSYMS enabled.  If you have to type it by hand, just the
symbol names will suffice - leave out the hex numbers.

Sorry, I am a noob about such things. Above option is enabled in my 
config, but I dunno how get the stack backtrace. Could you point to me 
to something helpful?
BTW, today the kernel didn't lock up. (But I didn't have the machine on 
the whole day.) Perhaps it will when I put in APIC  again. Was anything 
changed there recently?
