Thanks for reporting it. I don't have many great ideas, just some basic questions: . What other kernels have you tried? Does the 3.4.y kernel from experimental reproduce this? . How reproducible is this? 80%? 100%? . How heavy is the crash? E.g., can you still toggle the caps lock LED or use the magic sysrq key? . Do you have a log or photo of the crash? netconsole[1] or serial console[2] may be useful for this. Any other hints or strange symptoms?
