Since I see Andrew dropped the patch for the moment, I'm thinking that the ball is back in you guys court. If you end up with some patch to a well-known base (Linus rc or Andrew mm, say) that you'd like me to try out, let me know. You might want to include the printk's of args/results that you describe above, right in the patch, so I can provide more rapid and useful feedback, should whatever be this execve/sharedlib problem still persist. Yes - I have the hardware - but I must ration my time on this patch. Will this work for you? -- I won't rest till it's the best ... Programmer, Linux Scalability Paul Jackson 1.650.933.1373
