Proxmox 1.2 Tyan i5000 crashes

[ERS]

Good day.

I've been using proxmox on a Tyan Tempest with an intel i5000 mem controler mobo since version 1.0 wit no problems what-so-ever. I've recently updated to 1.2 also without incident.

Ever since though, I've been getting random crashes that seem to be related to the intel mem controller (this bad boy here http://tomoyo.sourceforge.jp/cgi-bin/lxr/source/drivers/edac/i5000_edac.c), as indicated by:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/276444

They suggest blacklisting the module, which I'm goingo to try now, but if it's a non-fatal error, why does it crashes? Also, the proposed solution relates to mem throtling, due to thermal considerations. This may not be the case here.

This only happened with 2.6.24-5-pve. Any ideas?

and then, crash!

Any help will be appreciated.

Don't know if anyone has the same problem, but blacklisting the module solved it. Gonna try an upgrade to proxmox 1.3, relist the module and see if it still works. Will keep you posted, it may help someone else.
