Description Steve Falco 2006-01-28 15:19:34 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050922 Fedora/1.0.7-1.1.fc4 Firefox/1.0.7

Description of problem:
When I first power up this machine, I generally get a kernel oops.  I'll attach both a good and bad log, as well as the output of lspci.

If I hit the hardware reset switch, the machine generally comes up cleanly.  Once up, it appears to run fine forever.

I'll say that this can be reproduced only sometimes, but it happens almost every time when starting from power-off.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.14-1.1656_FC4smp

How reproducible:
Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Power up machine
2.
3.
  

Actual Results:  I get an oops as shown in the attached files.

Expected Results:  No oops.

This is a mass-update to all currently open kernel bugs.

A new kernel update has been released (Version: 2.6.15-1.1830_FC4)
based upon a new upstream kernel release.

Please retest against this new kernel, as a large number of patches
go into each upstream release, possibly including changes that
may address this problem.

This bug has been placed in NEEDINFO_REPORTER state.
Due to the large volume of inactive bugs in bugzilla, if this bug is

So far, with the new kernel, this bug appears to be resolved.

Therefore, please close the bug; if I have further problems I'll reopen it.
