Upgrade from 1.1 to 1.3

I think it upgraded, but could you confirm this is correct... pve-kvm seems to have an error.

I reinstalled from a 1.3 CD and it ran for a few days. I didn't change anything. I added a VLAN that didn't work, so now I'm back to upgrading it again. It didn't crash after adding the VLAN. I just did an apt-get upgrade. Hopefully it stays on this time.
 
Ideas?

I just upgraded to 1.4, since it's stable now. However, it seems to be doing the same thing. events/3 is still using 100% CPU.

The system refuses to complete a restart while this condition exists.

As far as I know, there's no way to avoid this condition. I've been battling this for about two months now through a few reinstalls and a few versions (1.3, 1.4B, and 1.4). It didn't exist when I was running 1.1.

I rebooted the machine about an hour ago and I can't get into it. Second time this has happened since I upgraded to 1.4.
 
I can't reproduce that problem here.

A Windows KVM that I wasn't ever able to finish installing because of the lockups uses 100% of the CPU core. I can't console in. Every time I try to install Windows, it does the same thing. I can't stop the container. I tell it to restart, and I get this:
