Hi,
This has happened twice now, so I thought I'd try posting to see if
there are any suggestions for what might be causing it.
Here's the setup: Thinkpad laptop with a PCMCIA network card (a
3c574). I take it home weekends and plug it into my network there,
then on Monday do an "ifconfig eth0 down" and bring it into work and
run the following script (/usr/local/bin/neton in the logs below):
/sbin/cardctl eject 1
/sbin/cardctl insert 1
sleep 3
/sbin/dhcpcd -R
This normally works fine. However, last week and again today, I got a
kernel oops immediately after running this. I heard the double beeps
the laptop makes on the eject and insert and then got the oops message
on the screen.
The only thing found in the logs is (three different log files):
Oct 28 08:39:02 kelda kernel: thinkpad: I have registered to handle major: 10 mi
nor: 170.

retyped, so it may not be 100% accurate):

The readme says to look up that EIP line in /usr/src/linux/vmlinux, but
the addresses there don't go anywhere near that high.
Finally, here is the result of running ksymoops on this:

So, does anyone know what might be causing this? Or if the oops even
makes much sense? Any suggestions greatly appreciated!
