PANIC: early exception after adding PCI video card

[mellis]

I attempted to add another video card to my system and I get this message:

PANIC: early exception 0e rip 10:ffffffff81306d96 error 9 cr2 ffffffffff400844

This occurs every time I have a new PCI video card in my system. Pulling the new card makes the problem go away. All my video cards are nvidia. I tried it with two new cards so I don't think its an issue with the video cards themselves.

Hi mellis,

If you could also please test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.

I just realized the problem. I was attempting to add an x16 video card to an x8 slot. If this is still considered a bug I will test the upstream kernel.
