Bug#172545: transmeta longrun fails with unstable libc6 (pread/pwrite)

2002-12-10 Thread Joshua N Pritikin 
Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.1-5

i have a Fujitsu P-Series laptop (TM5800 CPU @ 800MHz) running Linux
2.4.20 (debian) with devfs, CONFIG_MCRUSOE, CONFIG_X86_MSR, and
CONFIG_X86_CPUID.  longrun is a tool to change the settings of
Transmeta CPUs.

longrun works fine with libc6 2.2.5-14.3.  When i try upgrading to
2.3.1-5 then i get a failure at the first call to read_cpuid()
in check_cpu(), line 186.  This suggests that pread got broken
somehow in the new libc.

Oy. I don't have access to a transmeta CPU to do any testing or
troubleshooting on this.  Do you have the skills to look into it more?
If not, I don't know how quickly this will be gotten to.

Tks,
