Warning/Oops report of the week of August 7th, 2008
Subsystems (2)
This week, a total of 2871 oopses and warnings have been reported, compared to 2826 reports in the previous week.
The biggest visible change this time is that the proprietary madwifi driver (which has been splattered all over the top 10 for months) finally fixed their sysctl bug, and they've now mostly dropped out of this report. A few new 2.6.27-rc bugs are quite visible in this report.
I'm hoping that Fedora will update to a 2.6.26 codebase soon, at which point I'll start dropping all reports from 2.6.25 and earlier from this report.
