Crashed again and it rebooted too:

reboot system boot 2.6.39 Thu Jun 9 23:58 - 04:05 (04:06)
user1 pts/0 X Thu Jun 9 19:25 - 19:30 (00:04)
user1 pts/10 X Thu Jun 9 18:23 - crash (05:35)

Any thoughts on what could be causing this?
Should I go back to 2.6.38?

If you remove the threadirqs option from the commandline it does not
happen, right?
Yes, most often anyhow (still using that option)


Can you try the following patch ?
Yup, patched:

# patch -p1 < ../patch-for-cpu patching file arch/x86/kernel/smpboot.c
#

New kernel running now, I also plugged in my USB devices back in as well, we'll see what happens.
