Bug#499198: linux-image-2.6.26-1-amd64: complete system freeze

Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-amd64
Version: 2.6.26-5
Severity: grave

Hello,
this bug is somewhat related to #499046 and #498328: with the above kernel
version, after about 3 days of uptime the system completely freeze, without
writing anything in /var/log/{messages,kern.log,syslog}. Usually it's
anticipated by a crazy char repetition (like in #498328) or somethings by a
system slowdown until freeze.

This usually happen when I do something particular "heavy": like restarting a 
service like mysql, or "apt-get"-ing something.

I cannot no anything; something the situation resolve like in #499046, so after
a couple of minutes I have access back to my workstation, other times I'm not
so lucky and the machine completely freezes, not even ssh remote access is
allowed.

I'm available to do tests, if needed, and now I'm forced back to 2.6.25, hoping
the situation with this kernel will be better.

The machine is an up-to-date sid.

Thanks,
Sandro
