Yep, I did that first..

Given the response to previous issues along the same line, it looks a 
bit like I just remember not to actually use the system in the way that 
triggers the bug and be happy that 99% of the time the kernel does not 
panic, but have that lovely feeling in the back of the skull that says 
"any time now, and without obvious reason the whole machine might just 
come crashing down"..

I guess it's still better than running Xen or Windows..
