Is the description of the 'freezing' of dillo given in the README an uptodate description of the problem. This implies that it is a kernel version effect...
Yes, the Linux kernel had a bug and it was fixed.
Linux >= 2.4.9 => No problem.
no - see below
I originally compiled dillo0.6.6 against slack 7, kernel 2.4.5 (IIRC, or even 2.2.18) with no problems. However dillo0.7.0 does freeze,
NB
even when
compiled against the headers for, and run under, kernel 2.4.19.
so 2.4.19 + slack 7 + dillo 0.7.0 'ne marche pas'
BUT it
compiles and runs ok when compiled under slack8.1, with the same headers and kernel.
