(But honestly I don't know what to look for: what is kernel
soft-lock?)
here there is a good explanation on what soft/hard locks here (scroll
down to "A Classification of Kernel Bugs"):
http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Bugreport_kernel
Indeed: the condition I had seemed closest to kernel soft lockup.
Sorry, I did not find a similar doc for Debian explainig the different
types for the most common kernel bugs :-P
I thank you for the responsiveness and directions you have provided.
Although in the past the problem appeared quite consistently, in the
last few days I failed to reproduce the problem. So I can't test your
suggestions. (In a sense these are good news ;-)
Therefore I will suspend the discussion in this thread.
I will send a separate message in this regard.
Thanks,
Itay
