"...and several more beers in the process"

Seems there is always a reason for a beer.

Put...

panic=X

...on the kernel boot command: Where "X" is an integer representing the number of seconds to wait after a panic before automatically rebooting (if absent it defaults to infinity).

Rebooting after a kernel panic might put your machine in a reboot loop. Isn't there an option to poweroff the machine instead?

Hey, I have also a problem (with suspend S3) which seems depends on kernel config. I tried ubuntu kernels and they work. How exactly did you get the ubuntu kernel config?

It does. I have seen it. :-)
Would be interested in the poweroff option, too.
