If you haven't compiled the kernel with debugging symbols then you should do so..

After that get a crash dump and do..

cd /var/crash
gdb -k kernel.0 vmcore.0
bt

And post the output.

When you do post info like your dmesg output and hardware specs.

It does seem odd given the machien doesn't look _too_ busy.

What sort of processes are you running on it?
Web server, ftp server, etc?

Can you run top or ps and find out what particular processes are running at the time
it crashes?
