Ah sorry to misinterpret the content:), its a quiet new piece of hardware (at
most ~1.5 month old) and "Reallocated_Event_Count" constantly increases
(currently its increased to 313) and although i'm not 100 percent sure these
errors only occured with kernels > 2.6.18 (or 2.6.18 didn't report these
cause according to kern.log these only visible with 2.6.22+)

We bought 3 HP Pavillon dv2385ea and one of them only runs with 2.6.18 and its
smartctl output follows as a reference;

Selective self-test flags (0x0):

What is your suggestion in that case will i try to change the hardware
assuming its harware's fault or that may be regression introduced by kernels
newer than 2.6.18?
