Re: [Bug runtime/2725] Attempting to probe all kernel functions hangs FC5
I ran your script on 2.6.16-1.2122_FC5smp i686. It is running now on
this system as I am sending this. Besides a slight slowdown, nothing bad
is happening. Module size is 2.3M, or about half the size of the nvidia
module on my system. OK, this is interesting. I hit ^C to terminate the
script and I lost all console input in every window for several
minutes. Firefox was running fine. I could read emails, but typing in a
window did nothing. Then the script exited and everything is fast and
responsive again.
I wonder if this is related to the bug where the console starts
repeating characters while scripts exit? Anyone else see that sometimes?
