glibc madness WAS: [ Re: everything is dumping core! ]

  exactly, although you should compile with -g so you get some symbols to

  can get something done right away, VS learning C debugging from the

  I guess the rest of your machine is running just fine? because as was
  previously noted.. RAM is a factor in segfault..

 I ran memtest86 on this box for 5 days straight, and didn't have a single
 error.

 The problem, however, appears to be worsening, as now mozilla core dumps
 too, and it ran ok last week.
 I finally installed gdb and ddd, and ran it against mozilla.  The only
 output that i got was:

I think i've figured out (part of) thje problem.  Somehow, and i've yet to
figure out how, when i was attempting to build glibc-2.2.5 last week,
parts of it got installed.  I have no idea how, since the build bombed out
(ironically with a core dump) and i never even got as far as the 'make

I was wondering whether this was the same box that you tried updating glibc on. I thought you got that installed all the way, though.

My recomendation? Punt.
Assuming your data is backed up. Reinstall the O/S. Fixing a horked glibc is, um, problematic.

 Possibly.

Nope, turned out to be the symlink:
/lib/libc.so.6 - /lib/libc-2.2.5.so

I still can't figure out how that got set before i did a make install.

 I know that GLIBC has a fix-includes script that modifies header
 files so they'll work properly after the new library is installed,
 so perhaps that's the cause? Well, no, that isn't it; modifying header
 files shouldn't affect applications that are already compiled. I
 think you've got library version mismatches, which will most definitely
 cause seg faults. I'd reinstall the original library binaries if that's
 possible.

Thankfully i backed up /lib before doing the initial build of glibc-2.2.5,
so i just restored that and there are no more core dumps.

Conneticut [sp??] it looks a little better.


 Granted, i like the weather out here alot more.  22 years in NY was
 enough cold winters for my taste.

I wasn't trying to make a dig about the rusted cars thing, but my 
impression is that they salt the roads and this takes a toll on cars.  
However, my wife's parents have nice cars that don't exhibit such 
problems so perhaps it is just a stereotype.
Now, let's see, what stereotypes can I find about Pittsburg??  ;-)
I used to have a girlfriend whose parents lived in Pittsburg and . . 
blah . . .blah . . . .

Wal-Mart Connect 6.0

2002-11-25 Thread Matthew Carpenter
This is one of the more interesting web-logs I've seen lately...  What
exactly IS Wal-Mart Connect 6.0?  Is that the title given to the Lindows
machines?  Or maybe it's actually a machine AT a Wal-Mart?  I don't
know...

A little help...

2002-11-25 Thread Jerry McBride

I'm in the final stages of polishing off my vnc setup and find that I need a
little help in an area concerning GLX...

I'd like to squash this complaint when starting vncserver:

How do I provide the GLX extension on display :1.0?
On the server where I ran this vncserver session, on display :0.0 GLX is loaded
perfectly and I can execute glsgears without problems...

   Felt like a good horizontal jolt for about 4 seconds.

RH and SCSI devices

2002-11-25 Thread Brett I. Holcomb
In RH 7.3 I've noticed that it links SCSI devices in what I consider a 
strange way.

/dev/sg5 is linked to /dev/sdf (scanner)

/dev/sg3 is linked to /dev/sdg (tape library changer)

/dev/st is listed by the hardware browser for the tape drive in the tape 
library but doesn't really exist!

Why does RH make the scanner /dev/sdf for example?

i was just reading some stuff rick moen wrote in connection with 
wordperfect for linux -- he and i were discussing describe on another 
list -- and i found that on 
http://linuxmafia.com/wpfaq/problems.html#WONTINSTALL he links to the 
sxs editors page. rick is not a lightweight by any means, so i think 
the link is a pretty good endorsement that the sxs authors have done 
good.

Well, that's what I thought at first but I was desperately hoping there was 
a reason for this madness!  I'll redefine it to something sensible later.

 The s means setUID, which means that it runs with the UID of
 the owner, in this case, root, regardless of who executes it.

I understand, but have run into some programs that wouldn't work that 
way (don't understand why).

 What does that mean?

As in -r-xr-xr-x, rather than -r-sr-xr-x.
