The bug seems to still exist in kernel 2.6.11-1.14_FC3 for FC3.

Greetings,
I have run into a kernel oops that I can generate at will, and that hangs my machine. The machine is running Gentoo Linux, 2.6.11 kernel and gcc 3.3.5. I can post more information if needed.
The problem arises when I mount an SMB share from a 2000-series Snap server (network appliance); software version 3.4.804, hardware 2.0.3. The mount is fine, and can sit for a long time. However, as soon as I start doing ls in directories on the mount, or tab-completing filenames (i.e. short reads), I get a kernel oops. This invariably happens within 20 seconds of starting to do this.
I have tried two separate NICs (one tulip-compatible card and a 3com 905B) both of which have the same problem. The machine hangs whether or not smbfs is a module (although running it as a module makes the source of the oops more obvious).
I have never debugged the linux kernel before. What information do you folks need from me? I have at least one of the oopses in /var/log/messages, and can generate more of them. I read some of the kernel documentation but found it a little bit confusing, which is why I'm asking here.
Regards,
