Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):

 I configured kernel logging adding line "kern.* /var/log/kernel" in file
 /etc/syslog.conf.
 After computer freezes because of this bug, it needs to be restarted. But
 there was no log in /var/log/kernel abut the crash.

 Yesterday, something very strange happened: I have seen the same messages
 in the terminal, but the computer was not blocked.
 Also, all the messages appeared in /var/log/kernel, so I am able to
 provide the kernel logs:

 }}}

 I have not tried refcount branch. How do I get that?

 I see that if computer blocks, it does not write anything in the log file.
 Is the log method that I used correct?

 I see this problem very frequent now, so I can provide more informations
 about it if needed.
