The calls set_thread_area(2) and get_thread_area(2) are not implemented in UML. Both are essential to NPTL. There may be other problems too... Implementing them gets really tricky if you want UML to work with a 2.4.x host. I've been trying to steal enough cycles to learn enough to just implement them on a 2.6.0 host. > > Regards, > Nuno Silva ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Perforce Software.
