I am running OS X on an iBook and recently have received a screen
while using Safari that said:
"You need to restart your computer. Hold down the PowerButton for
several seconds or press the Restart Button. This message is in 4
languages and you have to restart.
This has happened twice recently and I don't have a clue as to what
causes this. Can anyone help.
That's a kernel panic. Unfortunately, there's no good way to get the
"real" error message out of the Mac anymore - in theory, it should be logged
in the crash log, but in practice, I never got good logs out of 'em.
When my Mac did this, it needed a new processor module.
