@aeva if I had to guess without seeing the whole thing, seeing a TRACE sometimes Segmentation Faults occur in newer CPUs if the microkernel code isn't installed and loaded by the bootloader. Of course it could be hardware too, a good air compressor cleaning and disassembly / reassembly might help.

You could try a live distro to see if the error repeats indicating a software issue too.

@lorendias it's a 15 year old CPU. also I've only seen this once
