Got an oops after I noticed that it wasn't possible to login on the console
after half a day of idle time. Ping'ing it from a nearby machine produced
the oops given below.
Unusual thing: system load was quite high, while it should be doing
nothing.

9:47pm up 2 days, 11:53, 4 users, load average: 5.96, 8.34, 8.71
