Solid lockups on 2.1.127-129

For the past week, I've been having solid lockups on a SMP box here at
work. This server has been running 2.1.x SMP since 2.1.90 with success
and now since 2.1.127 it's been locking up at least twice a day.

All that gets printed on the screen is:

Unable to handle NULL kernel pointer dereference_

And the cursor is stuck at the _ character.

The box is used as a news server and is running inn-2.2b since yesterday,
prior it was running inn-2.1

The setup is this:

Asus P2L97D w/ 256MB RAM
2 x Pentium2 266Mhz
SYM53C875 Controller
3 * 9GB Harddrives in Raid-0
Kingston KNE-100TX Tulip card

The kernel is using:
V0.90 of tulip.c
V 0.15 of pre-sym53C8XX driver
Raid0145-19981110-2.1.127

Any help or hints would be appreciated in solving this matter!

Cheers,

Nick
