OSX kernel panic resource?
anyone know if there's a database, webpage, program or the like that explains what the KP codes stand for?
i've gotten at least three GSOD's © (Grey Screen of Death) in the last two weeks, and i'd like to try and trace it back to it's source. however, i'm having a hell of a time finding the resources to do it.
anyone out there got a suggestion as to where i could find the info?

<strong>I'm not familiar with any specific resource, but I know that if you look at the actual crash output...</strong><hr></blockquote>
Where is the crash output? In 10.2, there is no longer an on screen output (unless you consider the polite message asking you to reboot your machine KP output.)
i also have had a KP where it puked the old style text across the screen. not the normal grey screen with warning.
i want to know what the hell is wrong with my computer, and i'm having a hell of a time finding out.
It is also worthwhile to submit it back to Apple through email... so long as you aren't particularly obsessed by privacy concerns over whatever random bits of information were in the registers/cache when the crash occurred.

not sure if anyone can make sense of that, but there you go.

<a href="http://www.apple.com/macosx/feedback/" target="_blank">http://www.apple.com/macosx/feedback/</a>
tell them what u posted above, and what exactly you were doing. include as much detail as possible.
HTH ?

Alci, usually there is a file that appears as a backtrace, but not in your case. Hmmm, weird. I can;t identify anything else in that code vomit.
my wife has also somehow managed to make my machine KP every time my back is turned. still not sure what exactly is going on there, but i don't worry about it since i just don't let her touch my computer anymore.
i'll send it off to apple. not sure it will do anything, but what the hell.
argh!
I do even have a brand new 1GHz WindTunnel?, so the hardware shouldn't be the problem. again; argh!
HAXIES ARE EVIL!!!
Apple Knowledge Base roundup: Apple describes <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107111> how to resolve a kernel panic that may appear after updating to Mac OS X 10.2.1, or optimizing a Mac OS Standard volume; Windows File Sharing (or "SMB") browsing is limited to your subnet <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107130> under Mac OS X 10.2;

TITLE
Mac OS X 10.2.1: Kernel Panic After Updating to 10.2.1 Optimizing Mac OS Standard Volume
TOPIC
In a rare situation, a kernel panic may appear during startup after either updating to Mac OS X 10.2.1, or optimizing a Mac OS Standard (HFS) volume using third-party software. This issue is more likely if Mac OS X 10.2 is installed on a UNIX File System (UFS) formatted volume.
DISCUSSION
Symptom
A kernel panic message appears during startup after updating to Mac OS X 10.2.1, or optimizing a Mac OS Standard volume. The most recent panic in the "panic.log" file contains the text:
"kernel loadable modules in backtrace com.apple.BootCache (with dependencies)"
Products affected
o Mac OS X 10.2 or later
o Mac OS X Server 10.2 or later
Solution
Use the following workaround:
1. Press and hold the Shift key during startup.
Note: If you cannot start up the computer this way, see technical document 106464, "Mac OS X: Troubleshooting a Startup Issue".
2. Click the Finder icon in the Dock.
3. Choose Go To Folder from the Go menu.
4. Type: /var/db
5. Click Go.
6. Locate this file: BootCache.playlist
7. Drag this file to the Trash.
8. Restart

Seems to coincide with my mouse playing up. It stops moving for just less than a second every so often.
In fact it has stopped moving altogether a couple of times and have had to pull out the usb plug and reinsert to get to work.
Is it possible these are related?
10.2.1 installed on 933G4 (single CPU 756 RAM)
Think I might try to get the mouse replaced on warrantee

I bought a spiffy new Dual Optical Logitech mouse 6 months ago... and I would get KPs every now and then. Actually, no KP, just TOTAL freezes. Especially in some games.
Then, I saw that I installed Jaguar, clean install, NO drivers, no apps, etc and I got a total freeze.
I changed back to my old MS Intellimouse Optical, and I havent had those problems anymore.
send and email to your mouse manufacturer to tell them to resolve the prob somehow

Its an Apple optical mouse so maybe it is faulty. I'll have a word to my local reseller after I get back from interstate
[ 10-08-2002: Message edited by: Aussie John ]</p>
since using an older puck mouse I had laying about- no kernel panics.
The optical mouse is being replaced
took out a ram chip from one machine, put it in the other. no more KP's
