Actually i experienced page faults mostly when browsing web mostly from linux opera. So i installed firefox from ports. It didnt cause any panic until yeserday, when it caused the crash. And after that system panic occured while booting. Well i don't know if a particular application is causing system panic but most panics occured when i was using net. Can you tell me if there are any other options for kernel configuration file which can make the debugging mor verbose? I only used -g option in my kernel config.
