Help! My linux is gone with an error message

[Rafa Castillo <rcastil@argen.net>]

I get this message from the console when I'm working

TIOCLINUX (0/8/9) ioctl is gone. Use /dev/vcs

and the system goes down. I cannot do nothing and I must power off my
machine.
I have debian 2.1r3, and I don't install unstable packages.
I've done memtest86 this weekend and I didn't get any errors.

Does anyone any idea about how to correct this problem?
Thanks a lot!

P.d.- I'm sorry about my terrible english! ;)
