Hm,
I don't know right now, but if you can reproduce the error with a reboot
and the error does not occur when using an usual shutdown and switching
on again, I this points to some wrong module unload.

Perhaps you can try this by not-loading some hardware modules like usb
or firewire (blacklisting). With SuSE I had problems with usb.

You did search for this problem, I suppose.

Kind regards,
Paul
