> You're kidding, right? Nope.. Apparently I suffer from lack of sleep, and GDB syndrome, I looked right at the crash line, and didn't even pay attention to what was above it. My apologies for that - didn't even notice it.

Not really - my point still somewhat remains - I was not claiming things should be all shiny and nice, but honestly, I would submit that if someone tries to submit a bug report, and may be doing it wrong, hostility isn't required - a simple - hey your not doing this right.. might be more conducive of a positive response from folks that have not submitted a crash report before. That's all I was trying to point out - I admit I made an error in not reading the screen fully.. But not realizing that, I would say its fairly understandable to see why one would get a hostile response from someone who doesn't realize they have committed a taboo. > Quit feeling sorry for yourself. If you truly want to help, > recreate the crash, send a full bug report chock full of > useful and required information, and go on with life. No idea what caused it, so its not possible for me to recreate it.. As I said before, if there is other information (such as ddb.log) somewhere on the machine that I can send in, I would happily do so. > crash(8) may be a useful read. Agreed D.
