Sorry, I don't spend too much time on this list. I am an EE student and don't have much time for programming right now.


I will file a report at the appropriate place when I get the time.


I have the same problem. With one difference : I can locate it in a differnet lab setup. Any Jag or Panther crashes reproducable(/lly) if have the following setup.

Put your hub/switch/any ethernet peripherial on a power strip, the Mac
into a differnet outlet. Put the Mac to sleep and switch off all
peripherials with the power strip. Wake up the Mac and switch on the
PowerStrip.

Interesting, so it seems like it may have something to do with the sleep then, not the PPP connect. I suppose I could test that theory by never letting it sleep.


I don't use ethernet for networking.


If you have the right timing the Mac will crash instantly. I located it as that it is not healthy to change the ethernet enviornment (incl. up/down) during some part of wake up. Perhaps some sleeping stuff from going to sleep my also influence it since while going to sleep also there may be changes noticed but not executed.

There was nothing obvious in my panic.log - In yours ?

Nothing that I could make sense of.


Un/Fortunately I don't mind restarting the machine cause usuallly I shoot it while debugging often enough that I want to restart it ;-)

Do you know where I can find a kernel debugger?


Yeah, interaction is a fine thing.
