I've "partially" solved the problem by assigning myself to a logging class. However the swap space is still not used. I guess I haven't strain the system enough. (Hey, don't blame me, the FreeBSD box I was using had only 32M.) > I believe this is a known bug in netscape, and not specific to SMP. What about Netscape 4? Everytime I execute netscape4, the X windows will exit without saying anything. Does it has to do with how the distributed program got compiled? Thanks, Nanbor p.s. BTW, thank you all for the great job. I really enjoy using FreeBSD. ------- End of forwarded message ------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-smp" in the body of the message
