Executive Summary: Bad page state at prep_new_page

[Jay Roplekar]

This might or might not be useful to anybody but I googled with the above  
error and tried to track down how many  of these errors had actually been 
resolved. [It is possible that people don't come back to summarize once the 
problem is resolved]. I only tracked once that did not get reported on lkml.  
And I tried to drill down to get as much info as I can. 


there were 12 in total that I tracked down starting 04/04/04 till 01/26/05
 None had a good resolution reported
 4 out of 12 had extensive memtest runs without any errors.  
12/12 were for 2.6.7-rc3 onwards. 
4/12 had mapping all zeroes [rest did not report or had non-zero mapping]

I might be barking up the wrong tree here without much knowledge,  but
I have a summary gnumeric spreadsheet [which I won't even think of attaching 
here] if it is going to be useful to anyone I would be glad to email 
personally.  It also has html links to the original reports.

Thanks,

Jay
