A UDB doesn't have an EV4 processor:

$ cat /proc/cpuinfo 
cpu                     : Alpha
cpu model               : LCA4
cpu variation           : -4294967301
cpu revision            : 0
cpu serial number       : Linux_is_Great!
system type             : Noname
[...]

$ uname -r
2.2.18pre21

I did get the following message in my syslog recently:

kernel: alpha_fp_emul: Invalid FP insn 0xbc at 0x2000108a738

However I have no idea what triggered this, I wasn't logged in at that
time (the system is running as my firewall / gateway for my cablemodem).
And the system is still running...
