another Oops / BUG? (2.6.17.7 on VIA Epia CL6000)

[Udo van den Heuvel <udovdh@xs4all.nl>]

Hello,

Below is another oops/bug, similar to the one I posted on 2nd of july.
I noticed that after such a crash named does not work anymore and
requires killing and restarting.
Also upsd loses sync with the ups and gives repeated messages of
stale/lost communication and established communcation; ntpd appears to
be fine.
This does not appear to be a hardware problem, yet.

What can I do to find the cause?

Udo


PS: the 'code' below appears to be text?
