I'm afraid it still is not working. The first problem was fuse. Modprobe fuse failed, saying module fuse not found. Looking under /lib/modules, it looked like the problem was fuse got installed under /lib/modules/2.6.8, but everything else is in /lib/modules/2.6.8-2. I copied /lib/modules/2.6.8/kernel/fs/fuse to the corresponding location under the 2.6.8-2 directory, but modprobe still failed. Although I would like to understand why better, I just worked around it and did an insmod on fuse.ko, and now fuse appears when I do an lsmod. I tried out the hello, world example in fuse to make sure fuse works.
That apparently fixed, I ran with the error logging using exactly the line that Paul suggested. And nothing happens. I am returned to the command prompt immediately witjhout a character printed. When something fails in a blatent way like this when it works for everyone else, it is very often a misconfiguration problem, but I cant' figure out what exactly is wrong.
