Hi, I played around a little more and found out that it seem to be the util-vserver package that is guilty.
I compiled it on an older machine (gcc 2.95.3) and it worked well. The version compiled with gcc 3.3.1 on SuSE9.0 doesn't work correctly. Did anyone else observer such a problem ? Or does everybody else use gcc 3.3.1 or SuSE9.0 without problems ? Thanks, Schlomo PS: In either case, the compilation went without errors ! -- Schlomo Schapiro Senior Consultant Solution Center Novell/Linux mikado AG Bülowstraße 66 10783 Berlin-Schöneberg Tel.: (030) 21790-0 Mobil: (0177) 3279060 Fax: (030) 21790-200/ -201 >>> Herbert Poetzl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 2004-02-27 16:52:13 >>> On Fri, Feb 27, 2004 at 11:26:32AM +0100, Schlomo Schapiro wrote: > Hi, > cat /proc/self/status shows: > > CapPrm, CapEff, CapBset: fffffeff > > Shouldn't it be all f ? > > I tried now also the 1.3.8rc1 patch, no difference at all (applied & compiled clean > on SuSE9.0 with gcc 3.3.1). > > also testme.sh still fails with test 201 and 202. that is a problem and should not happen, please provide the complete output of testme.sh -vv > Is there anybody else using SuSE 9.0, maybe it is the compiler ? > > Again, can please s.b. run this chcontext --ctx 100 bash -c 'getpcaps $$' on their > system and post the output ?
