A mechanism is now in place, via the + sysutils/panicmail port, for automated submission of + kernel panic reports to a central location. It is hoped that + this will prove useful, as similar systems have for other + operating systems, in identifying common panics so that + developers can be alerted and they can be fixed faster.

+ +

In the first two months that this mechanism has been in place, + 28 kernel panics have been reported. This is nowhere near enough + to be useful, so readers are strongly encouraged to install the + sysutils/panicmail port and follow the instructions to + enable it.
