Here is an overview of the NetBSD porting efforts for 1.2.2 and 1.3.1. Except where noted, all of this applies to NetBSD-1.5.1/i386. * gdb Thanks to Bill Huey, I pulled the appropriate patches from binutils 2.11.2 that fixed the C++ demangling problems. * 1.2.2 The current 1.2.2 tree compiles and seems to run correctly except for one anomaly I can't explain yet. When I run a simple thread test program using java, it runs correctly. When I run the same code using java_g, I get assertion errors in the green_theads schedule.c where it is validating signal masks. Weird. * 1.3.1 runs JBoss/Tomcat I have successfully run JBoss/Tomcat using the 1.3.1 build. It is noticeably faster than 1.2.2. * 1.3.1 won't connect to anything but :0.0 I can't get a 1.3.1 build to connect to any display except :0.0. It's failing in the XOpenDisplay which I can't explain yet. I'm building with XFree 4.1.0 so I'm going to try building/running with version 3 to see if anything changes. * 1.3.1 goes into busy loop for programs using awt/x When testing any gui code, the main window will get drawn (after a long delay) and then it just goes into a busy loop. It appears to be a write/SIGIO/poll/write... loop which does not happen at all with non-gui code. However, this morning, I actually got it to run the Notepad demo on the local display for the first time. More debugging is required... scott
