It started happening on August 6th, this is around the same time I upgraded
to the 2.6.35 kernel, the 2.6.35 kernel according to kernelnewbies was
released on August 1, 2010:

http://kernelnewbies.org/LinuxChanges
Linux 2.6.35 has been released on 1 Aug, 2010.

http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=127419418304483&w=2

Adam Radford (2):
      3ware maintainers update
      3w-xxxx, 3w-9xxx: force 60 second timeout

I will go back to 2.6.34 and see if the problems persists.

Justin.
