After installing 10.04 (Asus P5BV-C with Kingston ecc ram) dmesg reports the following EDAC error:
[14597.010027] EDAC MC0: UE page 0x0, offset 0x0, grain 1073741824, row 1, labels ":": i3200 UE
Previous Ubuntu versions did not report this error, but EDAC support for my server board could have been added with the latest kernels. The workarounds described above essentially work.

Booting the machine with the Quick Boot option disabled (or running memtest86+ for a while) minimizes the frequency of this error (maybe once every hour), but with the BIOS options Quick Boot enabled I'll get a message about every second. Memtest86+ 4.0 does not report any error---but for UEs it probably should have. The machine is rock stable so I guess it is essentially a bogus message.
