Package: linux-image-2.6.16-1-686-smp
Severity: important


I tried this kernel on a server, where your linux-image-2.6.15-1-686-smp
works fine.
The first thing I noticed was that X did not come up.
According to X.org.0.log, there was no /dev/input/mice.  Indeed,
there was no /dev/input directory at all.

This was a bit hard to figure out, for every second all consoles were
spammed with:

EDAC MC0: CE page 0x1f38a offset 0x0, grain 4096, syndrome 0x16, row1,
channel 0, label "": i82875p CE

Needless to say, this made it very hard to work.  I silenced it
by "rmmod i82875p_edac"

I have only a vague idea about what edac is.  Perhaps this indicates
some kind of hardware fault - but if so, no need to spam the console
every second.  That makes it impossible to look up what the problem
is, or anything else for that matter.  Just stick it in /var/log/syslog
or something.

(The page number was mostly 0x1f38a, but occationally different.)
