GPF when using sugar-jhbuild from laptop.org

Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.17-9-generic

I don't do many intensive builds, so this may not be specific to sugar-jhbuild.

I get this:

The VT it was running in is now dead and frozen. When running in a gnome-terminal it causes X to freeze and makes vt switching impossible.

Please let me know what else I can provide. This has happened a lot over the last 4 kernel releases.
