Hiya,
Some of you will remember me reporting watchdog resets on quitting X on my
SS2 with a cgsix, in the late 2.1.x kernels.
Various patches were applied - I tested some, to no avail.
Then, I stopped using my sparc for a while for unrelated reasons. Now I

Is fakeroot still available for slink? Presumably it is, and I did
something stupid (I did try to find it, but I could have made some foolish

Yes. Netscape 4.5 (X11), Linux 2.0 running X, on SPARC SLC. No problems
at all.
I have compiled a new perl, which incorporates both DB_File and GDBM_File
support for sparc.
To do this, I have had to make two changes to the source.
1) I have had to apply the patch in bug #
2) I have had to make the changes suggested by Christian Meder to make
