Kernel Panic! Why?

[marco772]

Hi,

 

I was writing a lengthy missive on Facebook when the screen greyed out and a black box appeared in the middle telling me to restart! This was HUGELY annoying as you can imagine!

I did some research and now know this was a kernel panic. The system should be fairly clean as my IT savvy housemate, who lives and breathes macs, built this one for me and had just updated it to 10.5.6

 

I saw on another forum that it may help to post the Console log at the time of the panic so here it is;

It was just before 12.30 when it froze so I guess it's something in those last entries that would indicate the problem!

I'm not technically proficient at these things, my hoousemate deals with all that but he is away for the weekend!

 

If any of you clever folk can see a glaring error that has a simple solution then your advice would be much appreciated and I'd REALLY like to prevent this from happening again!

 

Thanks
