I'm using 2.4.19-pre10, and got an oops. I sometimes also get a lockup, and have no idea why.

This oops happened when reading my lkml mailbox. Ksymoops output:

Warning (compare_maps): ksyms_base symbol vmalloc_to_page_R__ver_vmalloc_to_page not found in System.map. Ignoring ksyms_base entry
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000

After that I got a few times "kernel BUG at dcache.c:345"
