I don't get kernel oopses. It simply freezes.

I did that.

That log is all that came out. You can see the firewall messages still getting
logged, an indication that the kernel is still somewhat alive, _after_ the
lock-crash.

I tried:
zypper ar "http://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/kernel/kotd/HEAD/i586/"; "KOD_head"

but it doesn't work:

NOT_nimrodel:~ # zypper se --sort-by-repo --details kernel-debug 
Error building the cache:
[KOD_head|http://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/kernel/kotd/HEAD/i586/] Repository
type can't be determined.
Warning: Disabling repository 'KOD_head' because of the above error.

  | kernel-debug       | package | 2.6.27.7-9.1 | i586 | Main-OSS

  | kernel-debug-extra | package | 2.6.27.7-9.1 | i586 | Main-OSS 


which means I will have to download and install manually the needed packages by
rpm. What are the exact packages I need to install?

This is what I have installed:

NOT_nimrodel:~ # rpm -qa | grep -i kernel
kernel-pae-base-2.6.27.7-9.1
linux-kernel-headers-2.6.27-2.28
kernel-pae-extra-2.6.27.7-9.1

kernel-source-2.6.27.7-9.1
kerneloops-0.12-29.11
