Thanks for the report. Sorry to hear about the kernel panics you have been experiencing.

In theory, it should be impossible for any application (or application plug-in, which is essentially what a Mac OS X screen saver module is) to cause a kernel panic, no matter how badly behaved the application (or plug-in). The worst problem that you should encounter is an "Application unexpectedly quit" problem. In practice, there are bugs in the OS and/or drivers that can cause kernel panics. These bugs tend to be intermittent, although they may be regularly reproducible on certain system configurations.

Please report the details to us (www.orderndev.com, via our feedback page) with as much detail on your configuration and the steps to reproduce as possible. I'd recommend also reporting the problem to Apple.

I take it from your report that this kernel panic is only triggered with MA Time, not MA 2, is this correct? Have you changed/updated the drivers for your video card or are you using the ones that came with your system?
