Ok, maybe the debian brokenness exists in FC5 too, and a "yum upgrade" broke it for me rather than any kernel work. I guess I'll just have to try different kernels and see if the kernel matters at all. The strace output just made me assume that maybe the kernel _does_ do something wrong. > I just tried stracing the X server (I don't have a cupsd running) and > the selects look reasonable, e.g.: > > select(256, [1 3 4 5 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 > 26 27 28 29 30 32 33], NULL, NULL, {0, 484000}) = 1 (in [33], left {0, > 460000}) <0.026111> > > Is your cupsd a 32-bit or a 64-bit binary? My cupsd is 32-bit (but so is my X server, so I'd assuge strace has the same breakage). Strace looks ok when I trace "firefox", though (which is using "poll()", not select). So.. Linus
