That probably means that i shouldn't bee on this list, but i am:) I'm afraid that this information that is important for both the kernel people and us that don't know how to get the information that you need, will drown in the FAQ. Flesh it out or just put bills mail directly as it is in the tutorial section with a pointer in the FAQ _AND_ the handbook. If we get this information out in a step by step fashion, it's much easier to get you kernel people the information you need and you can point to the document and say "Read this paper and give me the information and i'll fix it"! I understand that the people that understand how to debug a crash don't have the time/hate to write the howtos. Bills mail is a exelent start and my thougt is that we will all be much luckier if this information gets out. Regards /Johan > Mike Smith wrote: > > > How about you take it and write the FAQ entry?
