No, I did not compile anything special... but I do a lot of extensive

paravirtualization (it's marked as experimental and I do not use it
anyway) option and I will give another try.
At home (the problem is at my job) I use a compiled k7 (no
paravirtualization so I can use original nvidia driver) and no
problem so far either...

Mmm I returned to previous kernel (2.6.18-4) and now goes OK (the
compiled version also frozer my computer) ... anyhow, I have read at
LWN that 2.6.21 is *super* buggy ... I think I will maintain this
version until a new one (less buggy version) appears...

This is interesting, because I am running Lenny/Sid off of 2.6.21 and
all seems well. This morning's updates did remove some linux-headers,
but I rebooted to test the machine and it restarted just fine.

I have noticed however that my machine has begun to make those kinds of
noises I used to associate with Win98 ... y'know those clicking and
grinding type noises when the CPU is under load. I don't know if a
kernel can make a machine do that, but it has been since upgrading to
2.6.21 that those sounds have started. It could be coincidence, though
my machine is but four months' old.

Clicking and grinding when the CPU is under load? That sounds like
your system is doing lots of swapping.
