I have a couple of drives partitioned off... I know how to go through the
whole mkfs thing... I think the problem I'm having is with the video modules
I have installed.
I was just wondering if there was some sort of software tool that can monitor
the kernel and tell me when it's having problems and with what. {I guess
that's what logs are for though, no? Still...} an instant fix would be nice...

Fits under "linux audio" if nothing else. :}
