Bug#275937: kernel-image-2.4.26-1-686: Programs crashing after apm suspend/reawake

[Peter Eckersley <pde@cs.mu.oz.au>]

Package: kernel-image-2.4.26-1-686
Version: 2.4.26-1
Severity: normal


I've noticed this heisenbug recently, where, on occasion, after
un-suspending my Thinkpad X20, some programs (especially mozilla, but
also, eg, gkrellm) crash continuously.

Here are some straces:

http://www.cs.mu.oz.au/~pde/gkrellm.strace.bz2

The only suspicious thing in the kernel messages was this (but I
couldn't see, precisely, what was triggering it):

Oct 11 16:10:02 luminance kernel: request_module[net-pf-10]: fork failed, errno 1
Oct 11 16:10:28 luminance kernel: request_module[net-pf-10]: fork failed, errno 1
