I'm running 3 identical HP DL380 G5 machines with the exact same setup. OS is Ubuntu 10.04.02 LTS, same stock up-to-date kernel version. Each of the machines are running PostgreSQL. I experience the above error message only on one of the machines.

This machine is also experiencing a high softirq rate. Every 5 minutes the softirq runs at 20% for maybe 20 seconds. I don't know if they are related but this softirq stuff is also strange. Please let me know if I should provide more information. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/568441 Title: mtrr: your BIOS has set up an incorrect mask, fixing it up.
