$ uname -a Linux snoopy 2.6.24-1-amd64 #1 SMP Thu Mar 27 16:52:38 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux I had similar experience sometime ago. Then problem disapeared as I updated system. So if suggestion by others does not work, think about moing to a newer kernel in unstable. (But watch out. One kernel update caused me to loose my network device ue to kernel bug in unstable.)
