Multiple video consoles. What happened to multi-user?

2003-03-01 Thread Yitzhak Bar Geva
The discussion thread has focused on multi-head for a single user. What about plans for multi-user? Matrox and Nvidia have four port cards. Why couldnt a single system (maybe multi-processor) support eight simultaneous users if it had two of those cards and USB input devices? What would be

Server doesn't build for me (setjmp)

2003-03-01 Thread Mark Vojkovich
setjmp is a *macro* (for __sigsetjmp) defined in /usr/include/setjmp.h. This is libc 2.2. so it doesn't set HAS_GLIBC_SIGSETJMP. SYMCFUNCALIAS chokes on this. This is gcc 2.95.3. I think the HAS_GLIBC_SIGSETJMP set logic is wrong. Mark.
