I have 2 newer kernels installed than you:  2133 and 2139.  Both for
FC5.  Both trip the kernel oops when dosbox is run.  The last kernel I
have that ran dosbox OK is 2111.

I'm running the 2139 kernel now so ivtv 0.7.0 plays nicely after a
reboot and I can run MythTV again.  Now if I can just find a version of
lirc_kmdl for that kernel!  B^)

2.6.17-1.2139_FC5 was released almost a week ago.  However, it
introduces complexities with other installed software when trying to
upgrade to it.  YMMV
