Hi Victor,

I have a desktop machine running debian lenny, with nfs4/kerberos

But on a specific machine, it kernel panics all nights, when the

It seems to happened always on the same stack state

I keep the machine up to date, but it does not correct the problem. If
someone could correct that ...

Well, I tested the memory with memtest86, it gave me nothing (2 pass clear).
I booted and set the X with vesa mode and nvidia unloaded yesterday, the
machine was dead this morning.
Thanks for reporting it. Basic questions:
- Are you still using this machine? If so, how are you coping? ---
what kernel do you use, did you find any workarounds, etc
- If the slab corruption stopped happening at some point, do you
remember when and whether anything interesting happened at the
time? /var/log/dpkg.log* might have clues.
- If the symptoms are still reproducible, please attach a log of the
kernel's initialization (you can get it by capturing full "dmesg"
output immediately after booting or by collecting from
/var/log/dmesg*).
- I assume this was not a regression, and that you always
experienced these problems on this machine?
- Any other clues or weird symptoms would be useful, too.
Hope that helps,
Jonathan
