Ever felt like giving your laptop a good shake after a Kernel Panic?  
Now it might  do some good.

"Place your computer on the leading edge of cathartic interfaces by  
modifying the kernel to reset your Linux® laptop automatically when  
shaken during a kernel panic. Implement a shake-detection algorithm  
in the kernel and user space to perform automatic shutdowns and  
restarts when certain kinetic conditions are met."
