That's quite believable. I don't see any relevant fixes in stable recently (except maybe v2.6.32.43~31, "clocksource: Make watchdog robust vs. interruption" which is not in squeeze yet), while upstream of course there has been more activity. Would it be possible to test a v3.0.x kernel from unstable? Thanks for a clear report, Jonathan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
