Linux version 2.6.25.18-0.2-pae (geeko@buildhost) (gcc version 4.3.1 20080507 (prerelease) [gcc-4_3-branch revision 135036] (SUSE Linux) ) #1 SMP 2008-10-21 16:30:26 +0200 I didn't notice it earlier because the network was active (network interrupts keep this problem from hapening). That job finished, network is quiet, and the symptoms came back. Quite rare occurrences, but I have had a few. This is what called my attention on the "warn" log (yes, I keep a terminal tailing that log): Nov 23 13:59:55 nimrodel upsmon[11226]: Poll UPS [myups@localhost] failed - Data stale Nov 23 13:59:55 nimrodel named[3192]: *** POKED TIMER *** Nov 23 13:59:55 nimrodel spamd[484]: prefork: sysread(10) failed after 300 secs at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.10.0/Mail/SpamAssassin/SpamdF orkScaling.pm line 648.

Often they last 10..20 seconds. The system clocksource is currently tsc. Any more info you want? Hopefully you can track it to some change done on the last kernel update. And no, I'm afraid I can't test in factory, it hard locks on me. Sorry.
