Description Victor Ashik 2005-08-30 12:35:13 UTC
Description of problem:

After upgrading acroread and acroread-plugin to version 7 from RHN kernel panics
after some minutes of using acroread-plugin with any PDF document.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

kernel-2.6.9-11.EL
acroread-plugin-7.0.0-4.2.0.EL4
firefox-1.0.6-1.4.1

How reproducible:

Always (reproduced on two different boxes: desktop and laptop)

Steps to Reproduce:
1.install described components
2.launch firefox
3.open and scroll down any pdf document from the web
  
Actual results:

kernel may panic few minutes later during other operations

Expected results:

stable working kernel 

Additional info:

It may be related with scrolling of documents during download - I can not
reproduce it while browsing of already cached document.

Have you tried this with any other browser?

Comment 2 Suzanne Hillman 2005-08-30 15:50:01 UTC
Also, you say always reproducable, but you also say that it 'may' panic a few
minutes later. Is it always, or is it just usually?

Comment 3 Dave Jones 2005-08-30 18:55:36 UTC
we need the output of the kernel panic to diagnose this.


Comment 4 Victor Ashik 2005-08-31 06:18:44 UTC
Now I think it happens usually: yesterday evening I was able to easy reproduce
it dy using only acroread (not as plugin) and then downloading something by sftp
crashed the system. But this morning I cannot reproduce it.

I do not have kernel panic messages because it does not appears in logs nor on
screen - it happens in X Window. I will try to do a diskdump.

Comment 6 Victor Ashik 2005-08-31 14:32:29 UTC
Now I do not think it is acroread - it looks like a bug in ipt_owner kernel
module, that I've never used before.

Comment 7 Thomas Graf 2008-06-13 21:09:46 UTC
Are you still experiencing this problem?

Comment 8 Thomas Graf 2008-11-03 13:01:29 UTC
I'm closing this bugzilla as there was no answer to my ping. Feel free to
reopen the bug if the problem still occurs.
