Sorry. Unfortunately newer systems evidently don't mount /dev/shm in the same fashion as older systems do, possibly because now /dev itself is mounted as a tmpfs. Not sure. However, I would be very surprised if your 10.3 system doesn't have posix shared memory capabilities enabled. -- kr -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I agree totally. However, part of netiquette is also being courteous. Not always, but more times than not people that jump so hard on newbies don't have much else to offer. I have been around for a long time, although not on this list. One common thing I hear from many newbies and non-newbies alike is that they are afraid to ask for help because they are afraid of being raked over the coals.

I found on the web the following howto instruction: > I understand that the line may have been blank before. However, there is an incompatibility between the initialization on 9.3 and the newer kernel. There is no easy fix for that. As for the mouse, I have never had to specifically load a USB mouse driver on my 9.3 system running newer kernels. You do however have to have the kernel properly configured. How did you configure the kernel? Did you start with your existing kernel config as a baseline? You can do that by copying /boot/config-`uname -r` to srcdir/config and then do 'make oldconfig'. -- kr -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If you add it to that line there is no need to do a modprobe because the module gets loaded every time. The script you are looking for is /etc/init.d/network, but it doesn't do a modprobe. Udev is SUPPOSED to cause the module to load when the hardware scan happens, but in newer kernels things have changed. -- kr -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I believe the problem that you are having is probably the difference in the way devices are detected and initialized (ie. udev). I had similar problems after going past a certain kernel version (maybe 2.6.18) on 9.3. I was able to work around this problem by adding the device drivers for the devices to the MODULES_LOADED_ON_BOOT="capability raw1394 video1394 sis900" in /etc/sysconfig/kernel.

[opensuse] pthread cleanup handler not called on pthread_cancel and sometimes pthread_exit
Hi, I posted this earlier on opensuse-programming but that list seems to be pretty quiet. So I will give it a try here. Since going to opensuse 10.2 we have found a problem with pthread cleanup handlers not being called on pthread_cancel and under certain conditions on pthread_exit from within C++ programs. The issue is that cleanup handlers put onto a threads cleanup stack via pthread_cleanup_push() should be called when a thread is canceled or exits. In some cases that is not happening. This only appears to be an issue with C++ programs that have exceptions enabled (default). It doesn't happen with C programs or if exceptions are disabled by using -fno-exceptions. This is not a viable solution. The issue is well documented as a glibc bug here: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4123, so I won't repeat all of the details here. Unfortunately, this is a critical bug and it has been sitting open since March 2 without any visible activity other than my recent activity. Does anyone have suggestions about how to possibly work around this issue or to help move things along?

[opensuse] Statically linked openmotif applications core dump on startup
Hi, I am having problems with statically linked openmotif applications core dumping on opensuse 10.2. These applications worked fine on suse 9.3. When linked dynamically these applications seem to work fine. I get no compile or link errors. If I try to get a backtrace from the core file using gdb I just get 5 or 6 addresses but no symbols. This is a really odd error. If I can provide more information I will be glad to do that. Any ideas?
