yes, I am on suse 10.0 x86_64.
When I compile I get two warnings related to longs and ints:
devtls.c:521: warning: comparison is always true due to limited range
of data type
sysproc.c:14: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size
the first one points to
       if(d->mode != ~0UL)
which I have no idea why is causing a warning, since mode is also a ulong.
And the second one is from a cast
status = (char*)arg[0];
but I am not really sure how to fix this correctly. I just did something like
char c;
c = arg[0] & 0xFF;
status = &c;
this eliminates the warning and drawterm doesn't crash any more. But
the problem is that I cannot paste anything that comes from X to
drawterm, should I be able to?
Saludos
