the the same for me, i had no problems while using 2.1b or 2.1c
with the old kernel, so i also think that it is not related to a
change in loopAES. but if i switch the kernel to a newer one i get
these errors (from 2.6.6-1.435.2.3 to 2.6.7-1.494.2.2). yesterday i
tested the latest fedora kernel 2.6.8-1.521 and voila the error
appeared again.

i am doing tests on 3 different testsetups now. so far i am not able
to reproduce the error :( all boxes are running with fedora-core2 and
the same custom kernel (like on the box which breaks once a day).

lets see what happens.
