Linux kernel version 2.4.10 (even patched by SuSE) is way out of date and
should not be used.
There are updated kernels available from SuSE right now to which yo should
upgrade. Pick at least 2.4.16 from SuSE updates or 2.4.18 if you choose to
switch to vanilla kernels.

Also right after kernel switch check your reiserfs filesystems with updated
reiserfsprogs to make sure there is no corruptions left from old kernels.
