Subject: 2.6.28.2 scheduling while atomic, then lockup.

Please note that I am not subscribed to LKML, please keep me in the CC
list, even if the thread takes a right turn and starts talking about
what color socks Linus is wearing.

After a little while, anywhere from a minute to half an hour, the system
just locks solidly, since I am in X I do not know if there are any
messages printed, however the LEDs are not blinking, all LEDs are
unresponsive, and sysrq from a PS/2 keyboard does not work.

Attached is the .config, and the dmesg output from a boot with this
kernel.

Thank you,
Zephaniah E. Hull.
