We're running 1.0.3-2 on 2 PC's and a G4, all running woody (2.4.18).
The PC's are fine but OpenOfficeCalc is unstable on the Mac side

Following the recent security alert I've installed new kernels on 4
machines including two HP LPro servers, one of which is dual processor.
I installed the corresponding 686 smp kernel and /root is showing:
vmlinuz -> boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-1-686-smp
However, uname -ra gives:
Linux Hydra 2.4.18-1-6
