	And I thought I was the only one having problems! Ever since
	2.0.1 went up I can pretty much be assured of CommandShell
	crashing soemthing aweful eventually. Don't know why, or what
	exactly decides to die, but I have been cutoff while using the
	modem (tty1) three times (twice in one night!). 
	
	Hitting the reset switch is starting to become a habit once
	again 8-(! Causing horrible things to my filesystems as well.

	Is this a FEATURE? Why wasn't it documented? :-)
