[Bug 897821] Re: Null pointer dereference in drm_debugfs_remove_files

 

Wow, thanks for coming back to this.

It's been a while since I've filed this report, I must have stopped
experiencing the bug quite some time ago. I also changed to another
distribution more than a year ago (unrelated to this bug), so I really
can't say whether it's still present, sorry.

Title:
  Null pointer dereference in drm_debugfs_remove_files

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Launching Firefox (from the KDE panel) sporadically causes a kernel Oops (Null pointer dereference) in drm_debugfs_remove_files (output is attached).
  The system continues to run, and after returning to the desktop session by switching away from the vt and back again, Firefox is actually running.

  EDIT: The bug appears since the upgrade to oneiric, both with Firefox
  7 and now 8.
