I had the same stability issues when using x86_64 version of Hardy. This problem is not related to vmware-player since I don't use that program and still sees the same problem. I did notice that we do have the same moderboard chipset and are both using a quad core AMD Phenom CPU. I also have a nVidia card, but it is an older version compared to you.
The Ooops is always related to memory access that fails. I first though that I had a bad memory module, but memtest reported all memory as good and the fact that the system is stable with a 32-bit kernel suggest that the memory is OK. I would guess that the problem is either related to the CPU (unlikely since that would affect very large number of users) or the motherboard chipset. All my outputs are from 32-bit version of Hardy, I removed the x86_64 installation since it was unusable on this system. # cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 16 model : 2 model name : AMD Phenom(tm) 9750 Quad-Core Processor stepping : 3 cpu MHz : 2411.060 cache size : 512 KB physical id : 0 siblings : 4 core id : 0 cpu cores : 4 fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : no f00f_bug : no coma_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 5 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush mmx fxsr sse sse2 ht syscall nx mmxext fxsr_opt pdpe1gb rdtscp lm 3dnowext 3dnow constant_tsc pni cx16 popcnt lahf_lm cmp_legacy svm extapic cr8_legacy abm sse4a misalignsse 3dnowprefetch osvw ibs ts ttp tm stc 100mhzsteps hwpstate bogomips : 4827.35 clflush size : 64 [and same info for 3 more cores] I've attached the output from "sudo lspci -nvv" ** Attachment added: "lspci.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/18285237/lspci.txt -- [hardy] random kernel Oops with 2.6.24-16-generic x86_64 started after last hardy package update https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/221223 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
