Quoting Jung-uk Kim <jkim@FreeBSD.org> (from Tue, 26 Sep 2006 17:33:44 -0400= ): > I was little annoyed by linuxulator breakage on amd64, which fails to > run Acrobat Reader. (Well, actually it's not Acrobat's fault. It's > just that wrapper is failing. If you run 'sh /usr/X11R6/bin/acroread' > instead, it runs okay.) All seem to boil down to one problem: This is a known problem. It occured after a commit by jhb@ to the ipc =20 stuff. Search the archives, I don't remember the exact details. So far =20 nobody with an amd64 system was able to provide the necessary debug =20 info to fix this. Maybe instead of playing with gdb/ddb/printfs it may be also possible =20 to use the linux test project testcases to frind the problem. You can =20 download a precompiled version of it from: http://www.leidinger.net/FreeBSD/linuxolator/ltp-full-20060822-ready.tar.bz2 Have a look at http://wiki.FreeBSD.org/linux-kernel for a description =20 how to use it and what tests are known to hang on i386 (they may or =20 may not hand on amd64, and some of the tests are known to need a =20 little bit of time). I suggest to do this in a gentoo-chroot =20 (linux_dist port, not the linux_base port). Feel free to add content to the wiki. > * PS: I have modified ports/devel/linux_kdump to build without gentoo. > If anybody is interested, you can get it from here: > > http://people.freebsd.org/~jkim/linux_kdump.tar.gz > > I just added Linux header files as a patch. :-P I don't like this fix. Why not use the package from the build cluster instea= d?
