Hello list, I'm proud to introduce a new emulators/linux_base-f8 port that was just been committed. It should be used just like linux_base-fc6. Please read /usr/ports/UPDATING record 20070327: AFFECTS: users of emulators/linux_base-fc6. This port is intended to be used with CURRENT and RELENG_7 only. NOTES: ----- 1. This port is known to lack some previous linux glibc bug which lead to program fails with diagnostic "double free or corruption (!prev)" (kern/117010). 2. This port is known to use (at least for GUI applications like linux-firefox, linux-thunderbird, linux-semonkey) some futex operations that are emplemented at CURRENT for now. They should be MFCed to RELENG_7 in two days though. For impatient: you may use /sys/compat/linux/linux_futex.c,rev.1.12 from CURRENT. As for me I use the port successfully with last nvidia-drivers, acroread7, linux-opera at 7.0-RELEASE. Have fun. Be happy.
