This is a warning only (2.6.9 had the swap token breakage that triggered suprious oom kills, so the warning was meant to get more info), can you try with the kernel of the day? http://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/kernel/kotd/9.2-i386/SL92_BRANCH It has my latest oom fixes that I recently posted to l-k and it should be very reliable for the first time in oom-killer terms.
