True, I didn't mean to imply they "owned" it -- my impression, perhaps
somewhat exaggerated, was that the egcs was intended to "replace" gcc
at some point. But I wasn't too clear on what exactly the relation of
the project was to Stallman and the FSF. When I bought the gdb manual
and saw that Cygnus was listed as co-author, I concluded that Cygnus
must have a fairly close relationship with RMS.

You might want to take a look at Trolltech's QT Professional. QT is
the (now) GPL X only version of the library that KDE is built on. The
professional version is completely commercial and is cross platform.
There are other cross platform librarys as well. Perhaps you are
familiar with them all and find them unsatisfactory. If that is the
case, carry on.
As far as the license goes, it really depends on what you want. GPL
will gaurantee that no one takes your work and hides it. But it also
means that some commercial vendors may not want it. BSD and Artistic
are worth looking at if you want to be open source but also want to
allow derived works to be closed. You could also use the license that
Trolltech used initialy for QT. Modifications were not allowed.
Users had to send their patches to Trolltech. This prevented
forking. But code using QT had to be GPL, even though QT wasn't. For
that reason, QT and KDE are not in the official Red Hat distribution.
If it is available, you might want to look at the work Talegent (SP?)
has done. Porting between X and Win32 is not trivial. If you toss
the Mac OS into the soup, things get more complex. Java is trying to
do the same thing, and look at the problems Sun is having fulfilling
its promise of write once, run everywhere.
As copyright holder, it should be possible for you to have a GPL
version of your library, and a forked proprietary version. You can
actually keep the two identicle as long as all the code is yours. If
other people contribute code, you can't just take it. It would have
to be only in the GPL version. Or you could buy the 'rights' from them.

Well, I hope I didn't cloud up the waters for you any further. There
is no reason for people to flame you, unless they are bored. However,
there is one possibility with GPL to consider. If you pull off the
near miricle of creating a good app framework that is X/Win32 cross
platform, then you can use it as the basis for large cunsulting fees.
A few hours a week of work at an outragous hourly rate can get you
that cabin in the woods.
Have fun!

How many files have you got on that system? Updatedb only takes a few

You should probably check that you aren't trying to put a bunch of
netpaths in the db. Also, there is a prunepaths argument so that you
don't put temp files and other lint in the db. updatedb uses the find
command to do its job. See how long find runs when you run it from /

Why are there executables in $HOME/bin with the same names as system

Subject: pthread debugging with gdb
Date: Thu, 31 Dec 1998 05:15:44 -0500
Not sure if I should post this to a more development-related group or
what, but here goes...
I would like to be able to debug a multithreaded app with gdb. I
installed a patch (gdb-4.17.patch) which was supposed to enable gdb to
handle threads (I really don't know jack about the internals here, so
bear with me). I don't know whether or not I need an updated glibc or
not. Basically, I just don't know anything about this issue.
What I would like are binaries for gdb and whatever else I need to get
into a MT app with gdb.
-or-
Someone to tell me what I need to do to make the afore mentioned
binaries myself (*ack*).
As far as my development env, I'm using stock RH5.1. I think that's
glibc 2.0.7, egcs 1.0.2, gdb 4.17.
Thanks,
James
Oh, by the way, gdb ->info threads doesn't present any info on the new
build with the patch.

Ok, this is really odd. I have all of the sudden acquired an
intermittent connection while in my Linux partition. I can always ping
the network IP, but not the primary nameserver. After first setting up
the static IP it worked fine, and it continuously works fine in my Win
partition. It has suddenly begun to work on several occasions, but
usually fails after reboot, or just lags me off. When it does manage to
work it is very slow and has a high packet loss. at one point I reset
the modem and it worked. I tried it another time and it did not. At one
point I tried to ping the the primary nameserver and it did not work, I
tried the secondary nameserver and that got through. I then tried the
primary again and that worked. I had made no changes between tries, in
fact, they were done consecutively. If anyone has any ideas or
suggestions I would greatly appreciate them.

Not anyone, anything. The FTP server at ns.edu.stockholm.se is
getting the username of the account connecting to it so that it can
put this in it's logs.
This information can be useful if Tennent is a multi-user system. If
someone at Tennet abuses the FTP server at ns.edu.stockholm.se
(e.g. uploads Warez) then the admin at ns.edu.stockholm.se can tell
the admin at Tennent what account was used.
identd is somewhat pointless on machines that are only used by their
admin.
> Is there any reason to be concerned?
Only if you didn't FTP to ns.edu.stockholm.se Dec 31 00:55:16 because
someone using your account did.

For all intents and purposes, a PPro is the same as a PII sans MMX.
The connector is different, ZIF vs Slot 1. To upgrade means a new
motherboard. One thing you will get, besides a faster clock rate on
the CPU is a faster PCI bus. This will improve performance if you
push a lot of data through the bus. Your mileage will vary depending
on what you do.
If you upgrade, buy a new computer. Keep the old one around and put
together a network. You can never have enough computers :-)

Well, syslogd was holding onto a stale file descripter after I did it
(or so I presume). The effect was, no new messages were logged until
syslogd was restarted. If I remember, I created a new
/var/log/messages file before restarting syslogd. I don't think
simply recreating the file works. However, I could be completely
wrong. It wasn't anything that was a big deal to fix, so if you don't
care about the messages that are there now, you can experiment.
