kerneloops.org records its 100,000th oops
[Kernel] Posted Nov 17, 2008 21:14 UTC (Mon) by jake

Arjan van de Ven reports that kerneloops.org has recorded oops #100,000, just shy of its first birthday. The site gathers the output of kernel oops messages, which are the crash signatures from the kernel. The intent is to find out which are the most common in order to find and fix the underlying bugs. "Other than the top 2 items, which have patches, we've done a pretty good job of fixing the high occurrence bugs (excluding the binary drivers which we obviously cannot fix)" Click below for his full report.
