Just to put it right, 2.6.18 (debian etch) is the last kerlenl, which survives on our mildly loaded servers more than a few hours. All kernel starting from 2.6.20 have locked up on our servers. And yes, it's shame that such a kernel has made it into a LTS. Even more bothering is the way,

Elod is correct. It is marked as Fix Released for Intrepid because he reports that the crash doesn't occur for kernel version 2.6.25 on his machine. As he is the original reporter, then this means that his bug is fixed in Intrepid. It won't be fixed for Hardy unless we can determine exactly what
