Package: linux-image-2.6.26-2-xen-amd64 Severity: normal Hi, I've just installed Debian with xen on our new QuadCore Xeon server. As stress tests I have used boinc client computing rose...@home and mysql server in high test load by inserting random data. I've noticed some freezes of sshd instances when I was conected to that server. I've found error message in dmesg:

I think that this is scheduler bug and when I googled for this message I've found this issue in ubuntu too. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/276476 They say, that they have a patch to solve this, I've not tested it yet. At first I thinked that it could be caused by hardware failure, but dmesg in dom0 doesnt say anything unordinal. Thanks a lot for your time. Ondrej Kunc CZOL Media s.r.o.
