Package: linux-image-2.6-*
Version: 2.6.17, 2.6.18
Severity: serious

On amd64 processors, whenever which version (32-, or 64bit) of Debian is installed, some programs (e.g. verlihub) after short uptime use 100% CPU. I tested it on AMD Opteron 1210 with several kernels (and even distros), and it turned out that the kernel is the guilty. There's no log entry in syslog or application's logfile. No matter which platform release of kernel I use, apps always hang on 2.6.18. I suggest confirming this bug by someone else ( I haven't the foggiest idea why only some applications crash) and, in case of positive, changing the default kernel in Etch.

Regards,
Pawel 'woody' Drewniak
