Hi Dan, Automatic reporting would end up being a mess given that panics can be caused by hardware problems. Having an autoreport check if memtest was run before it reports, or having it only run with -CURRENTmight be useful.

The info contained in the crashinfo.txt.N is pretty informative for developers, maybe your talking about another way of submitting it ?
