Title:
  System freezes after executing facter command

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
      Hello,

      We have a problem with certain kind of machines from our farm (+300) Sometime when running "facter" the machine freezes, we lose access to it and logging through IPMI doesn't show anything in the console, the only thing we can do is a cold reboot. Then if we run facter again, nothing happens. If we run puppet several days after it could be another crash or not, it is random. This program uses dmidecode and others system tools to retrieve system information.
  It only happens in machines with 2.6.24-28-server kernel, older kernels are ok.

      Soft Version:
      S.O: ubuntu 8.04
      kernel: 2.6.24-28-server2.6.24-28-server
      facter                          1.5.4-1ubuntu1
      puppet                         0.25.1-2          

  Hard Version:
  Manufacturer: Supermicro
  Model: X8SIE
    
  I managed to get some traces executing with "strace" that I could paste if you consider so.

  Someone has experienced something like that?
