How to debug an Oops on FC4 2.6 Kernel

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 

Hi,
My computer hung af few day ago for no apparent reason requiring a reboot and clear. /var/log/messages has an Oops log but I don't know how to use the Oops log to determine the cause of the problem. According to some posts, ksymoops can't be used 
on a 2.6 kernel.

When I run kysmoops I get:

 Error (regular_file): read_ksyms stat /proc/ksyms failed
 No modules in ksyms, skipping objects
 No ksyms, skipping lsmod
 Error (regular_file): read_system_map stat /usr/src/linux/System.map failed
 Warning (merge_maps): no symbols in merged map

As the message says, the file /proc/ksyms does not exist on my computer.

Can someone please advise me on how to process or reference any documentation?


Here is the Oops output and the output of several other commands.

Thank You
Peter Van
