I've recently upgraded from Redhat 7.0 to 9.0. I've been using Linux Oberon, release 2.3.7b under RH7.0, but it does not seem to work under RH9.0. I've tried relase 2.3.8a as well, but it gives the same problems.

The system runs fine for while and then the main thread just stops. The other threads are still active (I checked this with "ps -le"). There's no segmentation faults or anything strange. Oberon just reports that it has exited, something like "[1]+ Stopped oberon" or "[2]+ Stopped oberon". The X-window containing Oberon is not even closed when this happens. Has anyone had similar problems?

Yes, I had the same problem with Linux Oberon 2.3.8a release on RH9.0. I solved the problem by recompiling the oberon.c with disabling the thread support. It is written in src/x86/Unix/oberon.c, without Threads support: * Linux: gcc -o linux.oberon -DLINUX oberon.c -ldl -lm Then, I replaced this new linux.oberon file with the previous one. Necati.
