kernel 2.6.19: system freeze with blinking CapsLock and ScrollLock leds

["Max A." <maxale@gmail.com>]

I'm having trouble with the recently released kernel 2.6.19 from
kernel.org. With kernel 2.6.19 installed (my custom build from
sources), my system freezes at random points within several hours
after reboot.
A noticeable symptom is blinking CapsLock and ScrollLock keybord leds
(but not NumLock).
Does anybody observe anything similar?

I've got such freeze at least 4 times during last two days. So I
switched back to 2.6.18 which is known to work flawlessly for weeks.

Regards,
Max
