Hi, i have had two kernel opps in the last two days, not sure if its related to an upgrade to 2.6.11.10, so i try to file my first opps report.

I download the kernel sources and read the documentation in /linux-2.6.11.10/documentation/oops-tracing.txt and
installed ksymoops, run it with the opps.txt that i have copied from the logs, but give an error:

ksymoops 2.4.9 on i686 2.6.11.10-ARCH. Options used
-V (default)
-k /proc/ksyms (default)
-l /proc/modules (default)
-o /lib/modules/2.6.11.10-ARCH/ (default)
-m /usr/src/linux/System.map (default)

Warning: You did not tell me where to find symbol information. I will
assume that the log matches the kernel and modules that are running
right now and I'll use the default options above for symbol resolution.
If the current kernel and/or modules do not match the log, you can get
more accurate output by telling me the kernel version and where to find
map, modules, ksyms etc. ksymoops -h explains the options.

Error (regular_file): read_ksyms stat /proc/ksyms failed
/home/tat/prog/ksymoops-2.4.9/ksymoops: No such file or directory

Warning (merge_maps): no symbols in merged map

2 warnings and 2 errors issued. Results may not be reliable.



Modify the makefile so that it finds the Sistem.map26 in /boot. Also not sure if it need the file vmlinux, but if this vmlinux is neccesary i need to make a custom compilation?

Also it need a file called /proc/ksyms but i only find a file called /proc/kallsyms, tried to use it but dont work:

ksymoops 2.4.9 on i686 2.6.11.10-ARCH. Options used
-V (default)
-k /proc/kallsyms (default)
-l /proc/modules (default)

Warning (read_ksyms): no kernel symbols in ksyms, is /proc/kallsyms a valid ksyms file?
No modules in ksyms, skipping objects
No ksyms, skipping lsmod

searching a little seems the module-init-tools package have a /sbin/ksyms.old, so i run it but give me this: ksyms: QM_MODULES: Function not implemented.

Googling a little seems hotplug need kallsyms and ksyms was deprecated.

So now im here, triying to file the bug report. Can someone help me?.

TIA

Looks like you didn't copy over the System.map over when you re-compiled.
