Yes, it is related to pressing the buttons. I suspect that it 
migth have something with the frequency of the pressings, e.g. 
when I do it very fast. Or maybe the connectors of the button to 
bounce (not sure if this is the right english word for 
german "prellen").


If I don't press buttons, the box doesn't lock up.

I need to find out if the existence of atlas_btns makes a 
difference. My guess is that it shouldn't make any difference, 
the atlas_btns driver doesn't do anything with the interrupt 9. 
It's the ACPI subsystem that handles this interrupt, atlas_btns 
just "subscribes" into it and filters out some events ...

/me going to find out
