I am currently using 2.6.3-rc3, but all other kernels I tried lockup too. It appears the lockup is in the dri somewhere as the machine runs for days when no GUI has been used. I suspect that the problem may be in the OpenGL somewhere because most of the time the machine is frozen on a OpenGL xscreensaver. I haven't noticed a particular one though. What I have been doing is using the GUI for a while and then changing back to the console so the machine does not lock up, but I have noticed that the machine is becoming unstable even without the GUI running and a reboot is still necessary eventually. What I mean is that running the GUI eventually makes the machine unstable even if it is not allowed to actually lockup. I have tried various window managers and it does not seem to matter which one, eventually all have locked up when left on for several hours. I am going to try uninstalling xscreensaver and leaving the GUI up to see what happens.
