I hope this is helpful this time.
system stats in case they matter:
hardwarewise:
-------------
-duron 700
-384mb sdram
-tyan mobo with kt133 chipset
-hercules geforce 2 mx 32mb video card
-some generic c-media 8738 pci sound card
-intel eepro100
-some gateway-pull stb bt878 tv card
-13gig ide maxtor drive
-floppy
-samsung ide dvd
-hp/(sony manufacture?) cd-r/w
-old generic 350mb floppy interface tape drive
softwarewise:
-------------
-debian woody
-kernel 2.4.13 with robert love's preemptable-kernel patch (no visible difference of X snappiness)
-reiserfs
-ALSA 0.9.0beta8a sound driver
-NVidia 1.0-1541 driver

When the oops occured, the X Server died. (That's how I noticed.) The machine didn't crash, reboot, lock up, or anything like that. Just X Server Death.
Once before, long ago, I sent an oops report (from a Mandrake stock kernel... Imagine that.) and my report didn't contain any symbol info so it was pretty useless. I hope this is a little more useful this time. in the bzipped tarball I have the oops output from /var/log/messages, the /proc/ksyms file, the /proc/moodules file, and the output from ksymoops. I hope this is somewhat useful this time. Also, the ksymoops output is below, just in case attached files are useless or something.
