no need to patch the kernel if you use kernel > 2.2.10 (probably
lower version too, but I've tried my 76 with 2.2.10 andd
it worked ok).

I have a Future Domain 16c50 (I believe), in the kernel
configuration you need to say in that case Future Domain 700/800
or so.

If you happen tu have one of these too, you might 
want to try
http://www.uni-mainz.de/~langm000/linux.html
http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Plains/4781/

Even a ZIP Plus connected to the parallel port worked ok,
also a CD ROM connected to the SCSI bus.

as I've written in another posting, it wasn't difficult to
do this on my 77.

However I have had no luck to use svgalib on the MCA machine.
It complains about PCI type 1 not being supported.

Has anybody managed to get sgvgalib running on an MCA?

Right, so the way to "mine" for them is to create some really good 
marketing campaign and hope a few of the naive "contributors" will come 
up with something.  Can you say "open source"?

But I really don't want to have this flamelike issue discussion.  So bye.

I didn't accuse him of anything (I'm sure he's a fine techie).  I just 
said how it's all working out in the hands of the capitalists: those who 
do the work, don't get the rewards of it.  And my gut feeling is that 
Vladimir is more on the exploitation side than the techie side.

Yes they do: Compaq has a beta version of a fortran compiler
for Linux AXP. It's a port of DEC's own compiler for their 
Unix for Alpha.
I tried it on a 1 MB source analog circuit simulator
and the binary was a factor of 2 faster than g77's 
(from gcc-2.95.1).
This speedup seems to be quite stable with all progs i tried.
I'm looking forward to a corresponding C compiler.

Subject: system calls ?
Date: Mon, 06 Sep 1999 07:31:19 GMT

hi,
When a user process calls a system call the parameters are pushed into
the user stack ( ss3:esp3 in x86). Then the process switches into kernel
mode using int 0x80 (if ive understood the code correctly) and goes to
the entry point system_call. From here the actual system call is called.
My question is :- how does the actual system call function get the
parameters other than simple copy (memcpy_from_fs)

Hmm.  Turning lead into gold is possible.  It just is not practical in
any way, given how cheap it is to dig gold out of the ground in
comparison.

Subject: How does the exactly kernel work in SMP?
Date: Mon, 06 Sep 1999 09:26:38 GMT

This seems like a fairly simple question, but how exactly does the kernel
work when running on a SMP machine?  Is the kernel multithreaded and does
it run across all CPUs?  Does it execute on one CPU at one time? Do all
CPUs run the kernel at the same time?  I am suspecting it is the last
option from what I could guess from the kernel source..

Is there an recent FAQ on the SMP capabilities in the 2.2.x and 2.3.x
kernels?  The latest one I found was for 2.0.36.

Thanks!

You must admit though, the majority of good ideas are initially
spontaneous, and then cleaned up and developed into a fully fledged
execution.  Programming is a conceptual art, hence why people find it so
very much easier to design using various conceptual models.  With the
introduction of these conceptual models, people began to realise that
computers can actually do a lot more than we had originally
anticipated.  We had previously thought that the complexity of certain
types of software made them "impossible" to implement. Just maybe we're
still standing on the doorstep to this whole arena of discovery.  As
long as the intended result is better than that to which we are
acustomed, I wouldn't discount most ideas until they have been attempted
and failed at least ten times.  A computer, as a tool to the software
engineer, is like an artist with his canvas, you can never tell exactly
how good the artist is going to be, and every now and then one stuns you
by creating a masterpiece beyond your wildest imagination.  No one will
ever credit the aforementioned artist until after the masterpiece is
created, but how many may we be preventing with this attitude?  I don't
say everyone jump on and grab a text editor, it would be bedlam, but
don't shoot down ideas just because you personally cant work out how to
implement them.  If the concept is good, then consider the concept,
leave it to someone else to work out the implementation.  The greatest
works were the fruits of both imagination and implementation.  Neither
is a solution on its own.

James

P.S  Actually, I quite liked my walking on the moon analogy, and best of
all, its completely true.  Although if my grandparents were alive today,
stubborn as they were, they'd probably still say they didn't believe it

We don't actually have a specific mailing list as yet, because we all
live in the same city.  I actually have a telnet chat program I wrote,
which we run privately for such discussion.  If you are interested, I
could set one up pretty easily.  I have a web page for the project, but
most of the information is still either on my machine at home, or on
scraps of paper lying about atm.  In two weeks I'll return to part time
hours for the university term and should have much more time to update
some things.

As for my disagreement with your method, its more down to the level of
abstraction.  I'm a firm believer that everything should have a schemata
attached which seems tangible.  I feel some of your ideas seem to
abstract the functionality of a computer to above the level of
usefulness.  Concepts like unifying storage space are good ideas, but
other concerns will arise, such as how to handle removable media.  The
idea of creating an OS that can unify differing device types into one
mass of space is relatively simple and easy to implement, but the
consequences have to be considered very carefully.  Abstraction is only
a positive action when it is used with due diligence.

Yes, people in general like to see the colour of money.  And it seems
code is the currency of acceptance on this group, hence I have yet to
officially announce my project (but dont worry non-believers, for the
time is almost at hand ;-).  I'm finding it hard to scrape together some
time, but soon that will change.

I agree that any major OS project should be a combined effort by as many
people as possible, but there are obvious concerns.  Firstly, the
skeptics will be quick to point out that few people will work for
nothing.  Second, Organisation and quality control is difficult with
many people.  Last (in this post, keeping it quite short for once) of 
all, code can very rarely be written before a collaborative project is
formed as the concepts tend to get jiggled a bit by the creative input
of others.

What about /tmp? Did you put it on a separate partition or is it on /?

/etc is quite often written to. Examples: mtab, issue. Of course it
depends on how often you boot your machine and mount your CD, floppy and
other file systems.

Date: Mon, 06 Sep 1999 10:42:51 +0000

If your OS controls who gets to write to the initialisation scripts,
then how exactly would a program foirce itself to be restarted with the
machine/OS?  Monitoring startup script changes was one of the earliest
virus warning methods, and a decent OS should be very careful over who
gets to access such files.  Surely it wouldnt be a huge burdon just to
throw up a requestor saying "xxxx is attempting to write changes to your
startup, are you sure you wish to authorise this?"  with options to
accept or deny this process.  You could even implement a simple "expert"
mode which allows a fake file to be created and changed by the sandboxed
program, thus your sandbox could be the psychologists maze to see
exactly what suspect programs do.

Its actually an easier problem than you would first expect, as you say
restricting the damage a task can do once running would be really quite
easy with a new OS, but it would be easier to stop it propogating, as it
wouldnt be able to write changes to any important files without
justification.  As for the comments somewhere further back about none of
this being new ideas, its very true, but some of it is new, and some of
it constitutes new perspectives of old ideas.  What it does represent is
a conglomorate of ideas that have not been combined quite in this way
before, to use the whole, not the sum of the parts, to combat some age
old problems.  Whether it is the answer or not is irrelevant, its the
trying that counts.  The fear of failure and responses like those
Vladimir has had here have resulted in less people trying to push the
boundaries.  If we all failed a little bit more, maybe we'd get
somewhere,

Hi all

(Is this the right forum?)

The following script fails intermittently:

#! /bin/sh

J_HOME=`pwd`
if [ -z "$J_HOME" ]; then
    echo failed
    exit 1
fi

... in that every now and then J_HOME does not get set. The following
error message goes to stderr:

./script: Can't reopen pipe to command substitution (fd 4): No child
processes

This is on Redhat 6.0 (2.2.5-15).

Can anyone tell me why this is failing? On the face of it, this looks
like a resource problem causing fork() or exec() failure in the shell
(or out of file descriptors?). However, the machine is not loaded at the
time of failure, and it always succeeds second time round.

Thanks fo any help
