Hello. My kernel is 2.6.27.6, and at work, I sit in a place with
unreliable wireless connection. The problematic piece of dmesg looks
like this:

Prevois kernels panicked in this place, see description and photo at

The messages about "PCI INT A" are still a problem, because at this
time, the audio loops and the mouse is unresponsive (i.e., the system
locks up for a brief period of time, but eventually recovers). Here is

Here is /proc/cmdline (nomsi is needed in order to work around the
erratum in the GM965 graphics chipset without upgrading the driver).

If more information is needed, just ask.
