Yes, similar messages are often netdev problems, but not with this Machine Check Exception with this CPU context corrupt, which should mean some severe hardware problem (unless some bug, probably not netdev, triggers them). > > But in 2.6.26.5 i not see errors like this 2 days...

These people really know more about these things, so you should try this first. I think, they expect you to compile the most current kernel version (tip) using git for this. You can do this using the instructions from Ingo Molnar's README. Make a script from this: from the beginning to the "git checkout ...". Of course you have to install git before. After running the commands it will download the kernel sources to a subdir (takes time). Copy your config there, make oldconfig, make etc. Then send them dmesg after rebooting. If you have any problems - write. Alternatively, I guess, you could try the current 2.6.27-rc7 kernel at least. Jarek P. BTW: could you try to trigger this bug with one network card off?
