Hi,

I was trying out a modem on RedHat 7 running kernel 2.2.16 and when trying
to upload a file via ftp I get an OOPS.
I am using pppd version 2.4.0 on a Pentium III 450 with 128MB of RAM.

Here is the output of kysymoops:

[root@cpagano_redhat7 cpagano]# ksymoops oops.feb8.txt -m /boot/System.map
ksymoops 2.3.4 on i686 2.2.16-22. Options used
-V (default)
-k /proc/ksyms (default)
-l /proc/modules (default)
-o /lib/modules/2.2.16-22/ (default)
-m /boot/System.map (specified)
