Subject: [9fans] drawterm and linux 2.4.4 SMP
Date: Sat, 21 Jul 2001 01:12:22 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E15NlQw-0001p7-00@000pri026.bresnanlink.net> (raw)

I remember there was talk on the list some time ago about drawterm for
linux and how it may very well be broken under linux 2.4; well, that
time is here.  It seems (to me) that it is broken because I was just
stepping through the source (because it was SEGVing), and the macro CT
(at linux.c:30) seems to nondeterministically alternate between giving
the right answer and giving NULL, because linux.c:/^gettss(void)
nondeterministically alternates between returning 6 and 8...

Was there some suggestion or patch anybody had to fix this, or am I
going to be digging into the linux kernel to find yet another hack to
solve this?

Thanks in advance for any help.
