hello,
i know oopses from tainted kernels are probably the result of a broken 
proprietary module, but this oops seems related with VM or preempt or so..
the kernel was tainted with vmware and nvidia modules, i'll try to reproduce 
without them now.

Don't bother, just get pre5. It's a bug in pre4, no blame on vmware or
even nVidia.

Any known memory-related or queueing-related bugs that would cause Oopses
in SMP 2.4.12?  We've had a few recently-upgraded servers Oopsing
strangely today.

Can you send me the oops? 2.4.12 may not be the best kernel ever released,
but I don't think it was fundamentally broken either. Maybe the oops will
remind me about something..

I did report the appended oops on 2.4.12. Similar oopses happened
again several times on the same kernel. I upgraded to 2.4.13 and it
went away.
