I mean, even if the video driver crashes, I still want to have the ability to reboot the right way, avoiding corrupted files and WIP lose. Another thing is a non-critical module that can crash, but because not used by all apps on the machine, letting them ones that can continue run. But I don't know what is the approach of FreeBSD and devs about that. -- Florent Peterschmitt | Please: florent_at_peterschmitt.fr | * Avoid HTML/RTF in E-mail +33 (0)6 64 33 97 92 | * PDF for documents http://florent.peterschmitt.fr | Thank you :)
