I get this periodically for no reason. I've been a little busy, and haven't had time to pay attention to it, but It is distressing. I'm using the upstream 2.0.12 kernel sources with the kernel-package package. I really just assumed that the 2.0.x kernels need some work in the area of exception handling. They seem to hickup a little too easily. Richard G.
