I think we maybe saw another crash like that after a few months, but
nothing very recurring in that 24h running server.
We changed to proxmox distro for easing VM administration, that is based
on lenny but uses different kernels backported from squeeze, ubuntu and
redhat; we first used the 2.6.32 kernel based on squeeze and now are
using a 2.6.35 backported from ubuntu (for KSM support); we haven't seen
this kind of problem again, so I guess it was fixed upstream.
Thanks a lot
Eneko
