Well certainly they are working on it (and arguing lots). I suspect they will have it worked out in the next couple of years. Seems some architectures that tried to go 64bit first(like x32) got it wrong in either the kernel or glibc and now the question is how to fix it without breaking anything. -- Len Sorensn _______________________________________________ lpi-examdev mailing list [email protected] http://list.lpi.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lpi-examdev
