It happens repeatedly?  Does it happen at any particular time, like
immediately after booting, after two days, etc?

If it happens repeatedly, I'd suspect a hardware problem, or corrupt
kernel.

There are a few things you can do:

- Report this problem to [EMAIL PROTECTED], in a properly
formatted bug report.  This involves following some instructions included
with the kernel source; hollar if you need help.

- Try a version of the kernel that is later than is shipped with RH.  You
can download the source from

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.0/linux-2.0.33.tar.gz

You can find information on compiling the kernel in the Kernel-HOWTO, or
ask for guidance.
