System: FreeBSD boobookittyfuck.zefram.net 4.8-STABLE FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE #3: Sun Aug 17 04:06:58 EDT 2003 zefram@boobookittyfuck.zefram.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/BOOBOOKITTYFUCK i386
Developer machine running X and KDE, using an nVidia board. nVidia's drivers seem to make X eat alot of memory (nearly 1G before crash). 
AMD XP 2000+ on a ASUS board, 512M DDR 2100 RAM. IBM 15G drive with 512M VM partition. I was using portupgrade at the time of the crash.

	
>Description:
Not much to describe, my computer randomly shut off. Here's some useful information (I hope). First is of course the error from 
/v/l/messages, then I ran nm on the kernel (sorry, it was not in debug). Error appears to happen 44 double words (however long an 
instruction pointer is) into vm_page_lookup. Anything I can do to be of help, please ask. I wonder if it could be a bad sector or some 
such on the hard drive. Any thoughts? Any way to check?

>How-To-Repeat:
Running X & KDE for a week and a half, which ate up alot of virtual memory. Then compiling.
