Re: kernel 3.11.6 general protection fault

Hi, thanks for swift response.
Yes, without those modules loaded it hangs as well. Perhaps I did not understand you well - do you mean unloaded or not compiled/installed, or even blacklisted. I tried only with unloading them. The custom stuff is vmware nothing else, but if I remember issues popped up after compiling/patching vmware/player for 3.10
As I said I noticed this recently when I spent more time watching youtube videos, but it could be that this only reveals the problem which was persistent before (perhaps after vmplayer patch/modules).

I'm using the Notebook with a docking station - and I have a same notebook with different bios version. Does it make sense to try the kernel on a different bios version?

thanks and regards

Hi again, just noticed that it happens also without starring at
youtube, but again in the drm

Right, I can see a bunch of #GPs happening at

drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.c:8292 check_crtc_state+0x5cf/0xa60

(I'm looking also at your other mail) but also, there are other ones
which are completely unrelated and happening at random places. The whole
thing looks like random corruption to me.

And you have out of tree, proprietary crap loaded so can you reproduce
the same issue without those modules, i.e. vsock, vmci, vmmon... loaded?

Leaving the rest for reference.

Thanks in advance and kind regards
