Right. For international support procps-2.0.7 is the one to choose with
the patch procps-2.0.7-intl.patch.

IMHO ide0 ide1... are naming plugs on the motherboard. They are not
competing with special file names. It is a drawback of devfs to change
the device name when you happen to use a hd as a removable media.
hdd was disc0 and becomes disc1 when you plug in an hda...

i can't do that on my box, /dev is only a mount point for devfs.

assuming your /dev directory is dirty from something else than devfsd,
could you try this while devfsd is running :
#mkdir /devtest
#mount none -t devfs /devtest
#ls /devtest

/dev is mounted at boot time by the kernel (CONFIG_DEVFS_MOUNT=y).
The system boots and runs without devfsd. You just can't start any 
process calling for non-existing device under /dev and not created
by devfsd. For instance pppd or mc won't start by lack of pseudo-tty 
esd needs /dev/dsp ...

i was thinking the trouble may come from some programme launched by
your boot scripts before devfsd is running.

is your version of fileutils > 4.0.28 (ls --version) ?

I did that. Compilation OK with gcc-2.95.2 top still doesn't work (

blanks).
logout after commenting LC_ALL=fr and LANG=fr in /etc/profile 
login again : top works. 

It is a question of '.' and ','

2.4.1-pre2/3 and Pentium-III not stable

2001-01-13 Thread Pierre Rousselet

Pentium-III 256Mo
For testing, I try to compile glibc. The start is good.
When the process PID reaches a value around 22000
(variable), all goes wrong. Make gives error messages
such as :

make[2]: *** No rule to make target
`../sysdeps/wordsize-32/bits/wordsi:e.h'
make[2]: *** No rule to make target
`/usr/lib/g#c-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/2.95.2/include/stddef.h'
make[2]: *** No rule to make target
`../include/sys/cde&s.h'

The machine doesn't freeze, it is just completely unstable.
