Has anyone else seen this? > yeah, really ticking me off too... pico is no substitute for a real editor. another thing... the cvsup tag RELENG_2_2_5 seems to retreive -current. i was running 2.2-STABLE, and wanted to finally upgrade to 2.2.5, guess what... interesting note... make install in /usr/src/etc does not install anything, thus i'm having to upgrade /etc by hand. big question: has the problem causing the emacs dump been fixed? So far as i can tell, emacs is the only thing it happens to. i was going through the -current release notes, and it mentions that vfork is fixed, could this be causing it, i know emacs makes extensive use of vfork... just guessing obviously.. i'm still getting my bearings. jim -- All opinions expressed are mine, if you | "I will not be pushed, stamped, think otherwise, then go jump into turbid | briefed, debriefed, indexed, or radioactive waters and yell WAHOO !!! | numbered!" - #1, "The Prisoner" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Inet: jbryant@tfs.net AX.25: kc5vdj@wv0t.#neks.ks.usa.noam grid: EM28pw voice: KC5VDJ - 6 & 2 Meters AM/FM/SSB, 70cm FM. http://www.tfs.net/~jbryant ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ HF/6M/2M: IC-706-MkII, 2M: HTX-212, 2M: HTX-202, 70cm: HTX-404, Packet: KPC-3+
