Hi all,

I've installed the Liquorix kernel on Ubuntu 16.10 and i'm getting a lot of errors in dmesg:

And so it keeps going and going and going...

Anything I'm doing wrong or is this a bug?

Thanks in advance!

Are you running Liquorix in a guest VM? Seems that you might have come across a real bug with KVM, or it's some unusual interaction with KVM.

Also, you say it keeps going - how many times does this stack trace output in roughly a minute?

Liquorix is the Host, Win7 and Linux as guest.

sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog | perl -e 'while (<>) {$l++;if (time > $e+60) {$e=time;$i++;print "$i=> $l\n";$l=0}}'
1=> 1
2=> 2418
3=> 2576

Systems runs ok though, just flooding the log files

I see this when running Ubuntu 16.04 with Liquorix, when I run the Android device emulators that come with the Android development environment.
