PROBLEM:kernel bug while starting gdm

I have just switched from linux-2.3.31 to linux-2.3.32 and gdm (gnome
display manager like xdm) is crashing.
It seems to be a kernel error. Im using SMP.
X debian display XFree86 gnome kernel

Linux version 2.3.32 (root@metaram) (gcc version 2.95.2 19991109 (Debian GNU/Linux)) #4 SMP Tue Dec 14 16:44:51 CET 1999
