Kernel Panic every few days
I get a kernel panic every few days where I have to restart the intel iMac. This is not the end of the world, but it is very irritating.
On advice of Store Geniuses I have restored the iMac from the Time Capsule a few days ago, but the same behaviour carries on, and I have had two panics in four days. Plus ca change.
So what do I do? Is there a bigger 'reinstall' than I have done? How much 'clean installing' does 'restore' do? Is it enough?
Or is there some genius out there that understands what "thread_invoke: preemption_level -1, possible cause: unlocking an unlocked mutex or spinlock"@/ actually means, as that is what the panic message always says!
I attach the whole message below, for your delectation. Consider it a challenge!
