Jeff,

This definitely looks interesting and it even worked for me - breaking
in couple of times, trying various commands and resuming back to X all
works. Never tried a kernel debugger before but most things were
obvious after I figured out that I need to be on the VT to be able to
press break and be dropped into the debugger.

That said, it triggers soft lockups on all the suspended CPUs - not a
big deal and probably expected, but I guess that can be cured by
touching the soft lockup watch dog or something?

Thanks

Parag
