SUGGESTION to Linux kernel developers:
A lot of people are seeing this (and it has nothing to do with xiafs).
I myself was getting it; until I finally built a new kernel with one of
the NR_ parameters (NR_FILE I think) increased. This problem is easy to cause
when running X stuff.
I'd like to propose that this parameter get changed permanently in
the sources and SLS release to 200 or 256.
