Package: quik
Version: 2.0e-0.2
Severity: important

It appears the arg string isn getting set to a null pointer, instead of an empty string. The kernel doesn't like this one little bit :-)

In my case, it causes an oops after setting up IDE (why so late in the boot process, I have no idea).

The following patch appears to correct the problem on my beige G3 rev A.
