Well, during discussion in other thread we have figured that twe driver is actually pretty harmless and does not cause kernel panic.And I also figured that accessing extended error log of 3dm via web interface causes kernel to panic when the link is clicked very fast several times. Here is what i think. 3DM is only an application and IMHO error in an application must not cause kernel panic but such applications must be terminated w/o futher consiquences to the OS running.So, the problem with kernel panic when using extended error log in 3dm , again IMHO, is cause by either buggy kernel or buggy driver. I mean, 3dm passes some data to the driver which makes do bad things or 3dm passes some data to the kernel syscall which make kernel panic. Either way, *IMHO*, the part that must be fixed first is not 3dm, because it is just an external process relative to the kernel. What do you think? Artemhome | help
