Okay, as long as I can link that lib into all the other apps I'm going to "port" to 9p, I'm fine with that. > >I personally would feel better w/ LGPL (just because it always > >worked fine).

"wmirr ls -ld /etc" works as it should (like /bin/ls does), but other commands (ie read or ls w/o -d) do not output anything. I compared the server debug between linux kernel client and wmirr, seems that an Topen is missing at wmirr. cu -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt == metux IT service - http://www.metux.de/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please visit the OpenSource QM Taskforce: http://wiki.metux.de/public/OpenSource_QM_Taskforce Patches / Fixes for a lot dozens of packages in dozens of versions: http://patches.metux.de/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
