Description of problem: Running kernel-2.6.27.5-109.fc10.x86_64 on Thinkpad X61 (lspci below), after 1-2 hours of use, I get rsyslogd scribbling on my console windows: rsyslogd:kernel:Disabling IRQ #16 The system then starts behaving sluggish (e.g., seconds for mouse clicks to take effect, etc.). When I finally active a console window, I try to run "tail /var/log/messages", but I get an immediate fault (sorry, don't remember the exact text: "Bus error"?) This has happened twice today. Not sure its relevant, but both times I was running "padsp audacity". When I reboot (by power cycling), /var/log/messages shows nothing. Booting up shows journal recovery on /boot, / as clean. Rebooted system appears to run just fine. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.27.5-109.fc10.x86_64 How reproducible: Twice today Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:

I appear to be able to reproduce this by running "padsp audacity". Otherwise I've never seen this; and without running this, the system is rock stable. This time, I ran "inotail -f /var/log/messages" in one of the console windows while I was running "padsp audacity". I captured a screenshot (with my cell phone, since the system was "under responsive"). I attach below. Here (roughly) are the messages: kernel: irq 16: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option) kernel: Pid: 5301, comm: audacity Not tainted 2.6.27.5-105.fc10.x86_64 #1 kernel: kernel: Call Trace: kernel: <IRQ> [<ffffffff0100320f>] __report_bad_irq_0x38/0x7c kernel: [<ffffffff8108345b>] note_interrupt+0x200/0x26d kernel: [<ffffffff81083b88>] handle_fasteoi_irq+0xbb/0xeb kernel: [<ffffffff8101309e>] do_IRQ+xxf7/0x169 kernel: [<ffffffff81010933>] ret_from_intr+0x0/0x2e kernel: <EOI> kernel: handlers: kernel: [<ffffffff81229dd6>] (ahci_intrrupt+0x0/0x4aa) kernel: [<ffffffff8123b3f6>] (usb_hcd_irq+0x0/b3) kernel: [<ffffffffa00e354f>] (yenta_interrupt+0x0/0xc0 [yenta_socket]) kernel: [<ffffffffa041c46f>] (i915_driver_irq_handler+0x0/0x199 [i915]) kernel: Disabling IRQ #16 I'll google the above and see what's what. .jpg of screen below.....
Created attachment 323704 [details] "camera shot" of screen showing kernel trace Camera shot of screen with trace just before system went unstable.
Will anything be learned by me running with "irqpoll" or "irqfixup"?
Seeing something like this as well with kernel-2.6.27.5-109.fc10.x86_64; but looks to me like this bug is a dupe of Bug 471162, hence I'll report details there
