I have a MSI board with Dual Opteron and I'm also getting a lot of these general protection errors, when compiling KDE and a few when compiling the kernel. They also seem to occur random. This occurs in kernel version 2.6.12-rc*-mmX and 2.6.11-mm4. 2.6.10-rc1-mm4 is working fine. rm[4297] general protection rip:2aaaaac32260 rsp:7fffff909b28 error:0 sed[25927] general protection rip:40870a rsp:7fffff919320 error:0 sed[6628] general protection rip:40870a rsp:7fffffd18610 error:0 sed[7468] general protection rip:40870a rsp:7fffffb1a020 error:0 sed[13251] general protection rip:40870a rsp:7fffffb197b0 error:0 sed[18727] general protection rip:40870a rsp:7fffffb19490 error:0 sed[19301] general protection rip:40870a rsp:7ffffff18680 error:0 sed[19895] general protection rip:40870a rsp:7ffffff19420 error:0 sed[8139] general protection rip:40870a rsp:7fffff918b80 error:0 sed[12275] general protection rip:40870a rsp:7fffff918c90 error:0 sed[12021] general protection rip:40870a rsp:7fffffb193d0 error:0 sed[14332] general protection rip:40870a rsp:7ffffff193d0 error:0 sed[14350] general protection rip:40870a rsp:7fffff9192c0 error:0 g++[21170] general protection rip:404c88 rsp:7ffffff16c10 error:0 sed[28312] general protection rip:40870a rsp:7fffffd18310 error:0 sed[21555] general protection rip:40870a rsp:7ffffff19210 error:0 sed[24421] general protection rip:40870a rsp:7fffffb196d0 error:0 sed[11782] general protection rip:40870a rsp:7ffffff184c0 error:0 sed[18738] general protection rip:40870a rsp:7fffffb192f0 error:0 sed[19054] general protection rip:40870a rsp:7fffff919930 error:0 sed[2726] general protection rip:40870a rsp:7ffffff196f0 error:0 sed[32070] general protection rip:40870a rsp:7fffffb19600 error:0 lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc.
