After some hours under heavy load (=3) I got the following messages in my
logs, here run trough ksymoops. At this time there were running gimp with
xsane, gimp-print and setiathome, which I had forgotten to stop. There
was about 60 MB in swap without much change, swapspace is about 1GB,
memory 512 MB. I am running Debian woody on an Athlon 700. The bug is not
easy reproducable. I have been running 2.4.19-pre10aa2 for several days
without ever seeing it. The real funny thing is: When I stopped X and
tried to reboot, the same thing happened, this time with syslog. Besides
the aa-patches there were no other patches in the kernel but only the
Nvidia-driver, which does not seem to be involved, however.
ksymoops 2.4.5 on i686 2.4.19-pre10. Options used
-V (default)
-k /proc/ksyms (default)
-l /proc/modules (default)
-o /lib/modules/2.4.19-pre10/ (default)
-m /boot/System.map-2.4.19-pre10 (default)
Warning: You did not tell me where to find symbol information. I will
assume that the log matches the kernel and modules that are running
right now and I'll use the default options above for symbol resolution.
If the current kernel and/or modules do not match the log, you can get
more accurate output by telling me the kernel version and where to find
map, modules, ksyms etc. ksymoops -h explains the options.

Please reproduce the error without the nvidia driver loaded, or report
the problem to the nvidia developers. Unfortunately it is impossible
to say what the source of the problem is, as it is possible the nvidia
driver is overwriting memory elsewhere in the kernel and there is no
way for anyone to check that.
Cheers, Andreas
