Why the old kernel version? Debian 8 uses a 3.16 kernel version by default. If you're not using a Debian kernel that could be the root cause of your problem.

I can't see anything in the logs but that's not unusual. Does anyone have any pointers as how to trap the problem? I'm guessing it's a kernel crash. It's running stock Debian 8, 64 bit, kernel 2.6.32.
