I'm sorry, this is a > disgusting hack, but I still haven't had time to fix it Colman, I am running Mathematica, but it only works if I compile the linux support statically into my kernel, not with LKMs. Is this fix you suggested (above) one that would possibly explain that? I haven't tried it yet, as it works statically already. > > Colman > ========================================================================== Chuck Robey chuckr@eng.umd.edu, I run FreeBSD-current on n3lxx + Journey2 Three Accounts for the Super-users in the sky, Seven for the Operators in their halls of fame, Nine for Ordinary Users doomed to crie, One for the Illegal Cracker with his evil game In the Domains of Internet where the data lie.
