Hi,
From the last two lines:
Out of Memory: Killed process 22297 (links).
oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x1d2
This is saying the kernel's Out of Memory system has kicked in and
killed a process to free up some memory (in this case 'links').
Basically, you've run out of free memory (RAM + SWAP) and it's nuked
something to free up a little. I haven't personally seen this since I
mistyped my swap mounts in /etc/fstab, so you might like to take a look
at 'top' and/or /proc/meminfo to see that you actually have your swap
mounted.
I'm not sure about the other messages, but I would guess they're related
to the above.
HTH,
Chris
