Hi, I'm getting the following error:

Trying to fix it up, but a reboot is needed
After the errror, the system behaves erratic: sometimes some apps won't
load anymore, shutdown doesn't complete (it stucks at powering off hard
disks or stopping some service), etc. It occurs at random.
I have seen this since the late 2.6.12. I have reproduced this both with
and without X server and both, with nv and nvidia driver.
Computer has nVidia chipset, AMD Athlon XP 2400 with 256 MB of RAM. (NOT
Opteron)
