Can you give more details?

I've been banging away real hard at the 957 that I do my GNU and JAVA
development on for long periods of time without rebooting, and I
virtually live in the POSIX environment. In recent times, the only
reasons I needed to reboot were the results of bugs in my GDB
development effort that resulted in system aborts. But, that is
privileged code and is to be expected until the bugs get worked out. Why
do you need to reboot?

Regards,
