Assigning to kernel. Some news. The problem happened again. In the meantime I upgraded the kernel to the latest fc5 one: Name : kernel-smp Version : 2.6.19 Release : 1.2288.2.4.fc5 This time I captured part of the kernel OOPS. Unfortunately I had to copy it manually from the screen and I couldn't copy it completely because I had to restart the server ASAP. I hope I've copied the relevant parts and I didn't some mistake while copying: EIP is at skb_under_panic+0x59/0x67 Process ksoftirqd/1 (pid 6, ti=c07a5000 task=dff210f0 task.ti=dff2a000) ...

EIP: [<c05bc5bb>] skb_under_panic+0x59/0x67 SS:ESP 0068::c07a5f54 <0> Kernel panic - not syncing: fatal exception in interrupt This is a kernel problem, assigning to kernel. latest FC5 kernel is 2.6.20-1.2300.fc5, released March 14th. Please test with that. Upgraded to 2.6.20, waiting to see what happens.
