Recently (sometime between 1.4 and 1.4K with ELF ;), I've been having some
trouble with the linux emulation. To wit: some stuff that used to work,
doesn't, but some still does. Some only works partially.
Specifically: Netscape Navigator 4.5 still works, Wordperfect 8 does not.
(it dumps core). Oddly, Acrobat reader 3.0 works *ONLY* when lauched from
netscape. (i.e., if I click on a pdf file, it works OK. If I run it from
the command line, it seg faults)
I've been noticing these for a few weeks, but have not yet expended the
effort to track it down. Incidentally (or not), at the same time I made
the switch to ELF, I went to the suse_linux-6.1 package from the older SuSE
package.
Anyone else see this? Any specific debugging info that anyone needs?
