Hello all,

I am running linux 2.0.23, 48M RAM, AHA1542 SCSI Controler, 1
SCSI Drive, 2 IDE Drives, IDE CD-ROM, 64M Swap. At the time of
this problem I was in X running netscape with 4 browsers open, 11
xterms, playing a MP3, running mySQL, and was generating about 6M of
html documents from the database with a perl script. I also had a ppp
connection to my ISP, with ip_masquerading. I clicked on netscape,
and all of a sudden I was looking at the login prompt on the console.
I check my log files and found that the message below was logged
by klogd:
