Bug#457631: linux-image-2.6.18-5-powerpc: system freezes (occurred twice)
Package: linux-image-2.6.18-5-powerpc
Version: 2.6.18.dfsg.1-13etch6
Severity: important
At about 00:25, the system completely froze: the mouse and the keyboard
were no longer working (even Ctrl-Alt-Del), and the network connection
was no longer working either. Not much in the log files before the
freeze:

I was just using "tin" at that time. The only thing I could do was
to switched off the machine. A few minutes after rebooting it, I got
a second freeze (just after typing "reportbug ...").
I think I didn't have any such problem before (except when using the
smartmontools long self-test), in the last few years.
