Ok so it's definitely a kernel issue. The way I see it is I don't think
we will see a new kernel in lenny. Now, we can probably further isolate
the issue by doing the following:

 1. Get the debian source package and build it ourselves. See if that
prevents the issue.

 2. Try out latest kernels 2.6.27 and 2.6.28 (by building from source)
and see if that prevents the issue.

What do you think?
