The log I gave was from my desktop, so I'll assume you wanted that
instead of the server:
[mike: mike in ~]$ grep "System RAM" /proc/iomem
00010000-0009efff : System RAM
00100000-1dedffff : System RAM

I didn't compile the kernel myself; it's the stock Arch Linux kernel,
which may explain the following useless output (this was the only file
I could find called vmlinux):
[mike: mike in /usr/src/linux-2.6.30-ARCH]$ addr2line -e vmlinux 0xc0224dd1
kcore.c:0
[mike: mike in /usr/src/linux-2.6.30-ARCH]$ gdb vmlinux

I'll compile a minimal kernel later with debug symbols and see if I
can reproduce it on that.
