Thanks Bdale for the suggestions. But I think I didn't express correctly the
main objective of my mail:

I can make by servers running under Linux...
and I've justed tell I were using Debian stock kernel just for explaining it
wasn't an home made with a possible error manually inserted, and to tell
I was sure it was the same kernel I was using before my crash.

My problem is not here. I am just trying to know if someone have
an hint on the fact my servers behaviour change over the time with the
same kernel/softwares.

Sure I can add a more recent kernel and this may work correctly without
adding kernel options. But If I have an hardware issue, perhaps it is better to know it now than
latter.

So that's why I've posted here. I just wanted to know if someone else already have noticed that before. No more.
I was quite busy today so that I didn't have perform further tests with
different kernel/configurations and debugging to learn more.

Best regards,

Matthieu
