Sorry for the late response.
First of all we should rule out that the Nvidia kernel module is
causing trouble. Does the error also occur if they're not loaded?
As a next step we should test, whether this has been fixed upstream
in the mean time. Please install a 2.6.30 kernel from backports.org
to test whether this is the case. If so, we can try to identify if
isolated patches can resolve the problem for the Lenny kernel and
apply them for a point update.
Cheers,
Moritz
