I wondered about it at the time, but not doing it crashed 2 machines who 
were linked via an ssh login were locked up tight last night, this one 
and one of my machine controllers.  I had to get dressed to walk up the 
hill in 20F weather and press the reset buttons on both it and this one.
Its been yonks since a crash, took me by surprise. And I'd tried to run 
latency-test from linuxcnc on this machine last night after the reboot, 
and found a passle of rtapi_app and rtapi running this morning that 
weren't killable by a root session of htop. Some sort of a ghost or??, 
as stopping htop, and restarting it made them go away.  Strange goings 
on but it seems to be running normally now.
