Hello,
I think I found a bug in kernel 2.4.18-3 (stack RedHat 7.3 Uniproc
kernel.) It's a Pentium 4 (w/D850GB mobo) with SCSI and IDE, using NVidia
driver from nvidia. (I can't reproduce it with or without nvidia driver -
feel free to blame nvidia.)
--- o ---
I don't know if it's related, but it happened, while I was transfering
file, I started my firewall script (a bunch of iptables commands)
It froze everything (in X windows). Keyboard, seemded to be
non-responsicve to caps-lock and num-lock, but SysRq was working (I could
kill the processes, and unmount most of the partitions without seeing a
thing on the frozen X-windows). I also couldn't login remotely. I could
reboot it with SysRq keys. Only root filesystem didn't unmount cleanly
(noticed it while booting)
--- o ---
Here is the Oops message I could recover from the logs, and its ksymoops
if it does mean anything:

Warning: You did not tell me where to find symbol information. I will
assume that the log matches the kernel and modules that are running
right now and I'll use the default options above for symbol resolution.
If the current kernel and/or modules do not match the log, you can get
more accurate output by telling me the kernel version and where to find
map, modules, ksyms etc. ksymoops -h explains the options.
