I've a custom kernel r313487 without, and another with, debugging lines re-added. [ i386 ]=20 With daily vmcore in /var/crash from the=20 former, can the latter be used with GDB [ the larger kernel ] to evaluate the=20 core file from the non-debugging, thinner kernel? And if so, better to learn GDB here or send it off as an attachment to an expert ?? The crashes almost uniformly [ 3/4 of them ] happen during seamonkey or links -g, and also after the recent seamonkey upgrade VS before, which almost=20 wrecked the install... if it matters any. OR, the fixes I did to the almost-wrecked install made it unstable to run a browser within. OR, some sysctl is not tuned to the recent hardware...
