Hmm ... interesting. I assume your C counter program is a dynamicly linked ELF binary. Do you have any other staticly linked binaries to test out? If not perhaps you could recompile your counter program as a static binary, and see what happens. (I'm guessing this might be an error that only applies to staticly linked programs.) jbrown On Sat, Feb 08, 2003 at 09:15:48PM -0000, tubby.toast at ntlworld.com wrote: > > > No doubt about it, the exu binary is the same one as mine, and exu itself > > is working fine.
