I have traced my system Instabilitys to the SMP Kernel and the USB-OHCI module, use of any usb device from a microsoft explorer mouse, hp 6350 scanner, to hp g85 office jet; results in random reboots, hard lockups, and other undesirable effects.
The attached file is a Digi cam shot I took of a crashed kernel: Basically the following puked to screen, the numlock light on the keyboard went out, the caps lock and the scroll lock lights on the keyboard lit up (strange, what could this mean?) at that point not even the reset key commands like ctrl alt del worked: kernel bug at usb-ohci.h:464 invalid operand: 0000 It would be nice to make effective use of the 4 usb 2.0 and 4 usb 1.1 ports available on my MSI K7D-Master motherboard. Please let me know where the best forum might be for discussing and developing the resolution to this problem.
