	I was just doing some stuff (importing an album in iTunes, running PlayerPRO (a MOD player application), and doing some webwork in Safari (IIRC), when the 'kernel panic' dialog came up. Haven't installed any kexts or anything like that, so what could cause the panic? How can I find out what caused it to panic? There aren't any logs in /Library/Logs/CrashReporter (I'm running 10.2.6 (6L60). Any help welcome. --Douglas
