If it is a obvious bug, yes those are easy to find, the obvious bugs also have lots of crashes tainted or untainted. The ones that always get everyone in trouble are the ones were something modifies something unrelated to it and causes someone else's code to crash in a bizarre way. On Mon, Mar 1

Crashes of tainted kernels

Many of us need akmods for our hardware. But when the kernel crashes or ooops'es, we are unable to send the crash report. Since none of the crashes occur in the modules inserted via akmods, why is the fedora abrt not allowing thes ending of such reports? At least provide a way for us to send t
