that wiki page should imho go away in some time; i intend to extend and 
merge my own notes[0] into README.Debian, so we don't need a wiki page 
for specifics that no one is going to 'maintain'.

unrelated to that: my backports for squeeze are available here:

deb http://archive.progress-linux.org/progress/ artax-backports main 
contrib non-free

i'm maintaining squeeze backports of the kernel (and some related 
packages for it) in above mentioned repository. feel free to use them.

note that running lxc with more recent kernels is highly desireable. 
besides the fact the stock 2.6.32 from squeeze has no support for memory 
controller enabled (i maintain a rebuild of the squeeze kernel to fix 
that, including installer images, as 'artax' on progress-linux.org), 
however, older kernels including squeeze most prominently also have 
incomplete support for some process isolations (e.g. a 'ps' in a 
container sees all processes of the host).
