Hi, thanks for your bug report. On Monday, a patch release is going
out which might fix the problem which caused your machine to crash,
assuming that by "crash" you mean one of the following:
* The screen goes completely blank except for a blue line and
just sits there, unresponsively.
* The screen goes blank for a moment and you get the xlogin
screen.
The third option for what "crash" means is "the screen switches to a
blue gradeient with a box and displays messages starting with 'PANIC'
for a few minutes," in which case the patch release might help but
we're less sure.
Anyway, thanks for letting us know.
