Login Window Kernel Panic

Login Window Kernel Panic - Fast User Switching

I have the sam issue on both of my machines. This kernel panic occurs randomly when clicking user to login, but seems to happen more often when switching to another user while leaving the current user logged in. It also occurs more often on my Mac Pro... I wonder if it is affected by the lag time for the multiple drives needing to spin up by chance. The following is a portion of the crash logs that all looked basically the same.

Though this may not be directly related, a kernel panic occurred also by simply connecting my two currently logged in macs via firewire 800 to do file sharing.
That crash report had the back trace kernel extension related to firewire drives of course.

I have root user enabled on both machines.

 

I experienced a login screen kernel panic as well, followed by a restart into another restart upon logging in, which was somehow due in part to my Magic Trackpad not correctly starting? I'm not really sure what happened. It would be recognized by the computer but I couldn't swipe between desktops, and then when I tried to gesture Launchpad it restarted once again. I shut down without recovering my previous session and that fixed it, but it leaves me wary. I've never had any sort of kernel panic/restart-requiring issues before Lion. I really hope it's just the OS for now and it becomes much more stable in time, as I'd hate to think it's related to my install. I have Time Machine enabled, but even if I reinstalled the OS I feel it would be a waste of time to fresh install the OS just to add a layer of what caused the problems with a Time Machine backup (if it's not just a Lion related problem and is something deeper on my end).

 

Same Problem Here

I too am having this problem and its driving me nuts. Everything worked fine until the Gold Master of 10.7 - once I installed 10.7, this started happening. FIX IT APPLE!
