Today I installed kernel from : "http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1144322", connected my mobile phone using USB cable & trying pppoe, connecting pppoe, disconnecting pppoe, unchecking and rechecking "Enable Networking", no errors but the mouse becomes erratic/jerky while performing the above tasks, seems something is not right.

Disconnected the USB cable from the phone, using pppoe over bluetooth, connecting and disconnecting pppoe, screen turn black with text, am able to recover by pressing "CTRL+ALT+F7", copying some logs file from "/var/log" to home folder (my "/var/log" folder is configured to be a temp folder, so it deletes logs on every restart). Am attaching these log files above. Trying to zip these log files and viola our friendly bug resurfaces, everything freezes and the have to hard restart the machine, the last two error lines are the same
******************************
[ 303.190936] Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
[ 303.192790] panic occurred, switching back to text console
*****************************

Hence we can say that the bug is still present in this test kernel also.

Thanks in advance
