Comment:
First, its not an opteron system, its a Dual Pentium 3 with an intel 840
chipset.. i tried the nmi_watchdog=1, it dont change anything. I also
tried to modprobe advantechwdt and add a watchdog driver but, same
problem. I event tried single cpu with noapic nolapic, and i still have
the same problem. I also tried to reinstall with a freshly burned cd to
be sure it was'nt a scratch on the cd or something..

My system was working fine on gentoo but i need ubuntu to complete my
work. If it dont work i will need to purchase another pc.

i noted that the problem appen only when im actually using the pc, if i
leave it on but dont use it, the problem doesnt seem to occur.
