I posted the original kernel panic message. I resolved this but forgot to post a follow up. In my case kernel panic seemed to be caused by running a 32 bit kernel on a 64 bit system. I now use Fedora 8 and the latest x86_64 standard distro modified kernel and everything works fine.

Hi Florian,
finally I got mod_mce and lirc_mod_mce working.
But I get kernel panics :-( similar like the one described in:
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1790724&forum_id=588332
also after using the keyboard and mouse for some seconds...
see a screenshot of the error under:
http://anywhere.ch/img_2069.jpg
My System:
# uname -a
Linux mediacenter 2.6.23.15-137.fc8 #1 SMP Sun Feb 10 17:48:34 EST 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
any glue how to fix this?
under which kernel do others run moc_mce with success?
thx and regards

Hi,
it's me again :-)
also just for the protocol... also installed x86_64 Fedora 8 and now lirc_mod_mce is now working fine with the standard distro modified kernel.
Florian thanks for your work :-)
