My ultra-2 crashes randomly under high load with kernels as late as
2.6.17rc2. "RED state exception" is what it gets, in the 2.6.17rc it
gets stuck in an infinite loop of them rather than rebooting.
Have you tried putting a high load on your system? Compiling
openoffice and the kernel at the same time is the type of load being
discussed.
