    Hi,

    I seem to have a recurring problem after upgrading to 2.4.23. I also
    tried moving to 2.4.24 with no luck.

    I have system with 256mb ram and 1gb swapdisk. During certain nights
    (seemingly random), the kernel spews forth a number of messages like th
    one in the subject and kills random processes rendering the machine
    useless until a reboot.

    I suspected memory shortage but now having mrtg running on it graphing
    free memory, it shows that there was a minimum of over 400mb memory (RAM
    + SWAP) at any given time.

    Does anyone have ideas why the kernel might be dying like this?

    Thanks and best wishes,

    Shri
