[QUOTE="icywings8, post: 521303, member: 41021"] Sometimes I will be working on something and my screen will suddenly and without warning turn to a semi-transparent grey color (like a windowshade coming down from the screen top) and a box comes up (in four languages!) saying simply: "You must restart your computer by pressing and holding the power button." Everything is locked up at this point and I have to restart as commanded. Its also happened like 10 times in the few days I've had my mac and its very annoying, even though my mac does start up very fast. I searched for a solution and I found out that it might be a kernel panic or something, so I found the panic.log.... Sun Nov 4 18:30:59 2007 panic(cpu 0 caller 0x0039CDE0): "m_free: freeing an already freed mbuf"@/SourceCache/xnu/xnu-1228/bsd/kern/uipc_mbuf.c:2742 Backtrace, Format - Frame : Return Address (4 potential args on stack) 0x211bb978 : 0x12b0e1 (0x4555b4 0x211bb9ac 0x133238 0x0) 0x211bb9c8 : 0x39cde0 (0x48cc84 0x1d48f200 0x3fb5001c 0x0) 0x211bba08 : 0x39d0dc (0x1d431200 0x8 0x211bba58 0x1) 0x211bba28 : 0x9e3b87 (0x1d48f200 0x0 0x20 0x2) 0x211bbb98 : 0x9e3ec5 (0x128ca2c8 0x128cc150 0x1bc8d 0x0) 0x211bbce8 : 0x9ef20b (0x129d7004 0x0 0x29b1c7c 0x19ccc1) 0x211bbe68 : 0x9bf84a (0x128ca4c0 0x2034836f 0x211bbe88 0x1a136f) 0x211bbeb8 : 0x9c0f3f (0xa47c80 0xa47c84 0xb0600000 0x0) 0x211bbf48 : 0x9bf4b7 (0x29b7804 0x0 0x0 0x19ccc1) 0x211bbf78 : 0x13e987 (0x29b7c94 0x29b7804 0x0 0xb070da48) 0x211bbfc8 : 0x19e2ec (0x0 0x0 0x1a10b5 0x34dc3a0) Backtrace terminated-invalid frame pointer 0 Kernel loadable modules in backtrace (with dependencies): com.apple.driver.AirPort.Atheros(300.22)@0x9be000->0xa48fff dependency: com.apple.iokit.IO80211Family(200.7)@0x9a0000 dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily(2.4)@0x63b000 dependency: com.apple.iokit.IONetworkingFamily(1.6.0)@0x64b000 BSD process name corresponding to current thread: kernel_task Mac OS version: 9A581 Kernel version: Darwin Kernel Version 9.0.0: Tue Oct 9 21:35:55 PDT 2007; root:xnu-1228~1/RELEASE_I386 System model name: MacBook2,1 (Mac-F4208CAA) I don't know if that helps at all, but its all greek to me.
