But we're getting closer and things > are beginning to look promising. We are trying :) I am currently basing all my Debian-mips(el) things on glibc 2.0.6. It is the only stable solution right now. I am experimenting with the glibc 2.1.94-3 debian source package which i managed to get compiled with unmodified cvs binutils and gcc + the gcse patch. Ralf reported bugs in the ld where he send me a patch. With that patch i get a "Bus Error" from the ld.so within the glibc build. So currently - No real work on glibc 2.2 based debian but that will change soon i guess ... Flo -- Florian Lohoff flo@rfc822.org +49-5201-669912 "Write only memory - Oops.
