I personally did notice some problems with bridging as well, and I fixed one panic situation in -CURRENT about a month ago. I still have a Problem-Report assigned to me and am very interested in tracking more of these down, but really need help from folks running -STABLE as well, and that can afford to provide some debugging information. Hence, if you have a complaint about the stability of some component, please realize that there is very little that developers can do about it without proper evidence and data. Take a look at the handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/ to find out exactly what's looked for. In short, you should at least provide a backtrace following the panic/page fault/whatever it is you're seeing. > I came from Linux world, wich was unlikely for me, but Linux never crashed on > my maschines.
