I tried it again while watching the console, and no panic message appeared to be produced. Does anyone have any ideas on how to debug problems of this nature? I realize I may not be able to get Maple to work, but in any case the system should not die like this, so I can at least try to fix that bug. Incidentally, is it possible to run kdb with a USB keyboard? Hitting Ctrl-Alt-Esc gives me the kdb prompt, but I can't type, so I can do nothing except hit the power button. I do have hint.atkbd.0.flags="0x1" in /boot/device.hints. Unfortunately I don't have a PS/2 keyboard on hand, though I can try and get a hold of one if all else fails. -- Nate Eldredge neldredge@math.ucsd.edu
