I've got a couple of ideas/suggestions:
- Have you tried running the Xen VM app? I've heard many positive
things about it, and if the issue crops up, it might give you more
info.
- Just out of curiosity, have you tried running Memtest *inside* of a
VM? Same question regarding a physical surface scan with the
badblocks app from inside a VM? It'd be interesting to see if either
of those fail, and what happens if they do.
Please keep us posted, because this sounds like quite a mystery, and
I'm curious to the cause!
