Subject: a kernel failure message

The following appeared earlier today, after logging into a nonroot account (the only login today) and opening the Firefox 3.0.4 browser; kernel failures were reported on several recent days but I did not report them to you, not knowing the email address at the time (I prefer email over machine-to-machine contact); they did not occur after the clean install of Fedora 10 Linux until recently; and I have not changed the hardware or installed new software in recent days:

I probably won't report future ones to you unless something indicates a difference or a long pause intervenes.

Thank you.
