Hello. Probably I've found a problem in MC or/and gpm daemon. When you kill MC under linux via Alt-SysRQ-K while MC is making ftp connection, or more strictly speaking, when MC is trying to make ftp connection - gpm daemon is crashed. So you are forced to restart gpm. (The demand to kill MC appears VERY OFTEN: when ftp server is down or bacause of network problems - the connection is HANGING and there is no way to interrupt the connection except killing MC.)
When you kill MC via Alt-SysRQ-K when MC _IS NOT_ busy - everything is OK - gpm stays alive. PS: May be it is not the problem of MC itself - may be it's a bug in gpm. But I have no power to found the actual guilty. -- Regards, Walery _______________________________________________ Mc-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc-devel
