Hello, I have just installed FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE and decided to try to run a Quake3 server using Linux emulation. I've found that the q3ded program consumes 99% of the CPU, leading me to believe there may be a problem with the program or with the Linux emulation feature in FreeBSD.
Some details about my installation: > uname -a FreeBSD cutest.daemons.net 4.8-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE #0: Mon Mar 31 02:11:00 GMT 2003 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 > pkg_info | grep linux linux_base-7.1_2 The base set of packages needed in Linux mode The top output: CPU states: 16.7% user, 0.0% nice, 83.3% system, 0.0% interrupt, 0.0% idle Mem: 34M Active, 1712M Inact, 155M Wired, 103M Cache, 199M Buf, 5148K Free Swap: 4080M Total, 4080M Free PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME WCPU CPU COMMAND 93552 clay 58 0 80156K 4260K RUN 20:50 97.07% 97.07% q3ded 93568 clay 29 0 1880K 1176K RUN 0:00 5.78% 1.71% top truss output: gettimeofday(0xbfbfb9d8,0x0) = 0 (0x0) linux_time(0xbfbfee84) = 1049588547 (0x3e8f7343) gettimeofday(0xbfbfee7c,0x0) = 0 (0x0) linux_socketcall(0xc,0xbfbfb970) ERR#35 'Resource temporarily unavailable' The q3ded program appears to be in a loop, as it keeps executing these same system calls. I believe the linux_socketcall() corresponds to recvfrom() since q3ded creates a UDP socket and waits for incoming messages on that port. I searched Google and the FreeBSD mailing list archive but could only find one thread about this problem, but it was from December 2000 and did not mention a fix. Does anyone know what is causing this problem and how to fix it?
