Would you mind explaining to me how to generate the strace track and/or how to do "proper" debugging when this crash occurs? ATM, the machine writes the report to the serial console, and completely freezes. I imagine that gdb would be involved here, but Im not sure how to go about setting that up. -- Lee linuxtwidler@gmail.com 14:21:30 up 5:40, 0 users, load average: 0.29, 0.20, 0.10
