That sounds like a panic, which should never happen if you're running user level code (which it looks like you are). If you could get a panic log, you should report it as a bug using bug reporter <http://developer.apple.com/bugreporter/index.html>.

There's information on decoding and debugging panics in this tech note: <http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn2002/pdf/tn2063.pdf>.

Somewhere in your code you're provoking the kernel into doing something bad, something like a bad memory access, the driver involved should really validate the pointer, but didn't. Checking all the parameters you send to the function which panics would be a good thing, break in the debugger just before the call and look hard at everything you're sending in. -- Barry Twycross email@hidden --- USB, it's not a Dyslexic BUS.
