Bill Hawes, Benjamin C R LaHaise, and many usefull hints out there.

Some tests remains ... one is a idle system, you need therefore a /home
partition (local or via nfs) ... a fresh rebootet system ... running xdm or
not ... just wait a few minutes to get the system really idle ... and then log
in onto the virgin home ... maybe you will see an oops (maybe in
/var/log/messages). Note that this oops also can be seen in 2.0.29 ... seems
to be a race in fs/inode.c.
Werner
PS: Some of the oops (first is 2.0.30 + pre-2.0.31-2 + changes, the others
are produced by a 2.0.29)
