[Andrew Sawyer]

Public bug reported:
https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/32304

Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 linux-image-2.6.15-15-amd64-k8 (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
Computer freezes completely (although screen is still vieable).  Have to
turn off with power button or reset button as nothing works.  I cannot
establish any particular program that is causing this.  I stopped gdm
and ran 'top', then ssh'd in from another pc while computer was running.
It crashed after a couple of minutes.  Going back to the computer to
view the screen showed the following (only the last few lines printed
due to no ability to cut/paste):


Code:
