Kernel oops continues as of 2.6.31.11.38, with or without nvidia driver loaded now!
However it occurs exactly 60 seconds after logging on to the GDM and seems to coincide with update-manager (Update Notifier) being loaded automatically under 'System->Preferences->Startup Applications (monitored using top in the terminal).

The workaround for me is to untick Update Notifier and use manually when required. Kernel oops then disappears!
Attached is the details from the kern.log when the oops occurs.

Is this an update-manager bug?
