Didn't know that such a thing existed in Debian. Unfortunately I cannot get apt-build to work on my box for the time being (...guess I have too many config changes behind apt's back.) As the box in question currently serves as my router/firewall, I cannot afford to take it down for the necessary changes right now. I should be able to check whether apt-build of libssl0.9.7 will provide a speedup simular to the one I experienced when building openssl0.9.7b manually (with -O2 -mv8) when I have my other Sun box in operation 1-2 weeks from now.

I assume 'apt-build install openssl' is equivalent in that both work against the same source files and build setup. Thanks. And, yes, the decreased time is why I've been fighting it -- I want that 2-3 second ssl setup time. lsh gave it to me w/o compiling from source for ssh2 and cvs-over-ssh2 but email-over-tls-libssl is still the agonizingly slow 10 seconds.

Slightly less than 2 seconds to setup ssh/cvs-over-ssh, which is remarkably better than the 10 or so seconds for setting up ssh via openssl. My email TSL still routes via openssl/libssl and takes the 10 seconds, but otherwise ... I recently built openssl-0.9.7b myself on my SS20 (SM61) debian "unstable" box (with -mv8 -O2). I don't recall any major problems doing that, and the authentication time was reduced from well beyond your 10 seconds to somewhere around 2-3 seconds. Best Regards, Michael Andersen

I've been using that same driver on my SB100, and I haven't seen any issues like that. Then again, X is on vt11 for me, and I have 1-10,12 used as terminals, so I'm not switching to non-existent terminals. -- Debian - http://www.debian.org/ Linux 1394 - http://www.linux1394.org/ Subversion - http://subversion.tigris.org/ WatchGuard - http://www.watchguard.com/

You probably just want to give this package back to the buildd: devel/ocamldsort_0.14.1-1: Uploaded by buildd-vore [optional:out-of-date] Previous state was Building until 2003 Aug 31 19:33:27 -- "It's not Hollywood.

What about unplugging and replugging the keyboard? Is it still equivalent to a Stop-A?

Why do you need to build it rather than just installing the package from unstable? You do need either to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH or to link /usr/lib/v8 to /usr/lib/muldiv. I've posted about this before and made a bug report if I remember correctly, but I don't know whether the fault is with libssl or libc. (libc isn't multilibbed.)

I've seen similar stuff on Splack, Gentoo and Sid while using two X clients. Except that if I actually have two clients running, there doesn't seem to be a problem; it's only when I go through the motions of switching to a second X session when there's not one that the machine hangs. It wouldn't be so bad if I could ssh in and kill offending processes, but the CPUs are located in another room (VGA & USB extension cables through the wall), and there's only two or three people with access to that room (it's a server room), so when they lock up, the students using the machines are locked out of the machine until one of us key-bearers goes into the server room and cycles the power on the box. Quite inconvenient. Thanks for the info! -- Kent

The Alt+F8 thing seems weird. I've tried changinr video depths from 24 to 16 (same behaviour), and tried changing the video driver from ati to fbdev (which locks the machine when X starts).
