Thanks for the information.  I am running a standard Mandrake kernel. I'll 
start talking with them.

Youv'e got a kernel oops, which is VERY bad.  This either means that you
have a kernel bug, or a hardware problem (or both).  It looks like some
kind of python process (Process python (pid: 6807)) is what triggered the
oops.  If you're using a Mandrake kernel, then you need to contact
Mandrake to address this.  If you're running a vanilla kernel that you
built yourself, then either update to the latest stable version, or talk
to the LKML for help.

You can run the oops through ksymoops.  See
/usr/src/linux/scripts/ksymoops/README for more info.
