[Bug 1222070] Re: Kernel Panic --not syncing fatal exception in interrupt

 

Chascon, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily kernel folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.12-rc1

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  Kernel Panic --not syncing fatal exception in interrupt

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Using the infrared remote control results in a kernel panic. This is
  reproducible using mplayer.

  apt-cache policy mplayer
  mplayer:
    Installed: (none)
    Candidate: 2:1.0~rc4.dfsg1+svn34540-1ubuntu4
    Version table:
       2:1.0~rc4.dfsg1+svn34540-1ubuntu4 0
          500 http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ saucy/universe i386 Packages
       2:1.0~rc4.dfsg1+svn34540-1ubuntu2 0
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  3) I expect to use the infrared remote successfully, without resulting in a kernel panic.
  4) Audio loops like a scratched record, computer hard locks so that the keyboard becomes entirely unresponsive: no escaping to a tty, keyboard capslock doesn't light up, screen goes to tty1 and outputs "Kernel Panic --not syncing fatal exception in interrupt", and SysRq-cntrl-alt-r does not reboot the computer.
