It's strange that the kernel locks up so soon.

The bug report won't be useful until you test the newest kernel releases
(2.6.34.4 or 2.6.35.2). For the report to be interesting to Arch
developers, you should test against 2.6.35.2, because 2.6.34 has been
superseded by it.

If only a testing machine is affected, you could simply wait until 2.6.35
leaves testing/, update and see what happens.
