Package: kernel-image-2.6.8-2-686-smp Followup-For: Bug #309308 Just noticed this bug in the testing-security list. I don't know if the below patch has been slurped into the Debian patches for 2.6.8, but the error posted looks like the same error I suffered when hitting this bug.
Patch from http://lists.osdl.org/pipermail/bridge/2004-September/000638.html The patch was taken into 2.6.9-rc2, and the bug was in code introduced very late in the 2.6.8 cycle.
