Hrm - "Unable to handle kernel paging request" sounds ominous. It looks like whenever your system runs /etc/cron.daily/slocate your system is running out of memory and trying to page to disk. The kernel is unable to do so and throws an "oops."
I'd open a ticket with Bugzilla. Also have a look at some of these: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=updatedb++kernel+oops&btnG=Search
