I have 10 IP cameras, a mixture of Acti and Vivoteks all running Mjpeg. Zoneminder was installed using the APT 1.24.2 package. The system is a Core 2 Quad 2.5ghz, 4gb ram. I've been using Ubuntu 10.04 x64. When the system is running, it runs at a nice 1.8 load with room to spare.
Just recently the system has began to crash/panic/lock-up the whole system. In the sys log I see messages like this

I have changed the following: CPU, Motherboard, Ram,network card, and reinstalled the OS several times. I've tried several kernels, by updating the system and running the system on the default kernel from the disk. Today I compiled and installed the 1.24.3 preview with the same results. This seems to be completely random. It happens with all 10 cameras enabled, and as little as 3 enabled. All cameras are set to "Record".
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance.
