Forgot about that...but yes, I suspect that would work nicely. But still -- remember what developers ask for most often: a good problem report: panic message, trace and ps output, a dmesg and info about how to repeat the problem. If people would reliably provide that, they'd make developers very very happy. Not being a coder, I hesitate to say this, but I don't recall anyone being asked for a system core dump by a developer. (my statement is accurate: I don't recall. The conclusions you draw may or may not be :) Nick.
