error output from crash dump

Does this still happen with the version of pirut that is in -updates-testing (or
it may have just been pushed to -updates)

I have not done anything special with the "pirut" module/program in regards to
the version which is being used, is this what you are referring to ? (apologies
for my lack of understanding)

Check the output from a terminal of 'rpm -q pirut'.  If it's not
pirut-1.3.31-1.fc8, then run the command
  yum update pirut
and see if the problem still occurs

A previous versiion of "pirut" was installed.  I have updated the module and
this error is not evident, however, another error is now being given.  I will
report this seperatly
