I'm also getting similar oops, about one a month.

Feisty, Linux version 2.6.20-16-generic ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version
4.1.2 (Ubuntu 4.1.2-0ubuntu4)) #2 SMP Thu Jun 7 20:19:32 UTC 2007

I've run memtest86 with everything turned on, but failed to find any
hardware memory problems.

Example oops:
