Do you use it on some -stable or on -current?
If on -current, please give the 2.6 emulation a try ("sysctl =20
compat.linux.osrelease=3D2.6.16" when no linux program is running). If =20
this doesn't solve the problem, please have a look at the =20
wiki.freebsd.org/linux-kernel page an apply the p4 diff.
If you use this on -stable: There are several bugfixes not backported =20
(lack of manpower / more interest to fix more stuff instead of =20
backporting it) which are also interesting for 2.4 emulation in =20
-stable. Maybe someone wants to have a look at this.
Bye,
Alexander.
