It was an error with the kernel you were running. You should always use the latest kernels because of the fixed security vulnerabilities.

Hi – <br> <br>Can you give us a little more detail? How often are you seeing this appear in your logs? Has it always occurred, or did it start recently? Do you have an untruncated message somewhere either in dmesg or /var/log/kern.log?
