> Let me know what I can do to help. Unfortunately, probably "report a bug upstream" since there's usually not much anyone in Debian can do about crashes in the closed-source driver. However, one thing to try first is that upstream has released a new version of the drivers that we've not had a chance to package yet. If you're comfortable doing a manual install from the upstream installer, it may be that the new version has already fixed this crash. (I certainly understand if you'd rather wait until we get a chance to package it normally to test.) -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
