Maybe not a regression after all, but an already existing issue.
These freezes that I had never experienced before appear to be triggered by the use of the newer
google-chrome 6.0.472.33-r55501 (perhaps in conjunction with a very slow network - dialup on mobile GPRS).
I have now experienced the same issue with 2.6.32-23.
Of course chrome may do something weird here, but some kernel fault seems to exist, since no user level application should freeze the machine, should it?
As soon as I have a proper environment, I'll try to see if all the machine freezes or just keyboard/mouse/user input by ping from elsewhere.
