hello.

i am getting really frustrated, and i am sure i am missing the obvious, but is there a way to compile libevent on a 2.6 kernel so it uses poll instead of epoll?
The manpage documents one method to disable specific methods such epoll and kqueue.

"It is possible to disable support for epoll, kqueue, devpoll, poll or select by setting the environment variable EVENT_NOEPOLL, EVENT_NOKQUEUE, EVENT_NODEVPOLL, EVENT_NOPOLL or EVENT_NOSELECT. By setting the environment variable EVENT_SHOW_METHOD, libevent displays the kernel notification method that it uses."

i tried:
libevent]# export EVENT_NOEPOLL=1
libevent]# ./configure

and

libevent]# EVENT_NOEPOLL=1 ./configure

and

libevent]# ./configure EVENT_NOEPOLL=1

and when i compile my app, set EVENT_NOEPOLL=1, it is always saying "libevent using: epoll"

am i missing something here?

thanks for all your help.
