kernel crash log via dmesg
I did a git-update of linus git tree on 27 Apr 2011, built the new kernel
image. Ever since using the new image, I have been *consistently* getting
many crashes - especially whenever my google chrome is retoring all its previous session connection.
Two crashes (entire system freezes) are shown in attachment. Ever since I
have revert to previous version - as booting up twice and consistently twice it will fail within a few minutes after Chrome is used.
v2.6.39-rc4-245-g4175242
Previously working version: 2.6.38-rc2+. Did not test anything between
2.6.38-rc2+ and 2.6.39-rc3, and 2.6.39-rc3 failed for me in other ways as well.
