Hi, Gentlemen I had subshell problem on AIX, which I fixed with the following patch: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/mc-devel/2002-April/msg00005.html
Everything was fine. But when I installed AIX 4.3.3 on my computer mc started to hang from time to time. So I found another way to fix the problem - sources: mc-4.6.0-pre1 sources - oslevel: 4.3.3.0 - gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (release) The origianl lines in subshell.c (started line 1130): #ifdef HAVE_GETPT /* getpt () is a GNU extension (glibc 2.1.x) */ pty_master = getpt (); #else strcpy (pty_name, "/dev/ptmx"); pty_master = open (pty_name, O_RDWR); #endif if (pty_master == -1) return -1; Were replaced with: #ifdef HAVE_GETPT /* getpt () is a GNU extension (glibc 2.1.x) */ pty_master = getpt (); #elif IS_AIX strcpy (pty_name, "/dev/ptc"); pty_master = open (pty_name, O_RDWR); #else strcpy (pty_name, "/dev/ptmx"); pty_master = open (pty_name, O_RDWR); #endif if (pty_master == -1) return -1; As for mc-4.6.0-pre1 sources, I also had to fix the ftpfs directory proble as it was described in http://mail.gnome.org/archives/mc-devel/2002-June/msg00036.html Regards Sergey Pavlukhin _______________________________________________ Mc-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc-devel
