[Bug 53216] Re: BUG() report in getnstimeofday: soft lockup

[Hervé Fache]

Same here: Dapper + Skype v1.30 (beta), the one with ALSA support.
The machine is a Dell Dimension 1100.
Almost every time someone contacts me (chat), the machine hangs for 2 minutes, or sometimes for ever. Still answers a ping though!

I reported the problem to Skype themselves, but it's obviously a kernel
problem. The problem is: the kernel says it's tainted (VMWare modules),
so not much hope from LKML.
