Tim,

Do not worry about the kernel oops report.  After you click on send, it will give you the address and the information that it send.  It is actually a good thing because it lets kernel developers know exactly what happened and likely get them to work on it to find a fix.  

I run rawhide and I have encountered serveral oops with newer 2.6.27rc kernels.  I encountered an oops.  Here's an example so you can see what it sends 

http://www.kerneloops.org/submitresult.php?number=48331

Hope this helps clear some doubts about kernel oops.

Regards,

Antonio
