Its a message from the kernel saying some piece of software tryed to do
something which caused a conflict.
I suggest you read /usr/src/linux/Documentation/oops-tracing.txt, i also
explaned to this list HOWTO use 'ksymoops' to trace problems just a couple
of days ago.

Upgrade your kernel to 2.0.36 because, IF you sparked a kernel bug, it would
have been resolved in later versions.
