Hiya, This drove me *nuts* last night. Here's the condensed example: //gcc -static -Wall -o bugdemo bugdemo.c -lpthread #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <pthread.h> //void vodd(){fork();} void f1(){printf("f1\n");} void f2(){printf("f2\n");} int main() { pthread_t th1,th2; system("echo sh"); if(pthread_create(&th1,NULL,(void*)f1,NULL))exit(1); if(pthread_create(&th2,NULL,(void*)f2,NULL))exit(2); if(pthread_join(th1,NULL))exit(3); if(pthread_join(th2,NULL))exit(4); return 0; } This crashes after printing "f1", but, uncomment the unused vodd() function and everything's happy. Compile with libpthread.so, rather than libpthread.a, again, all's well. Bug in the version of libpthread.a I've got? (I'm using Debian unstable, last updated about a month ago.) If someone could try it under different linucies (Ugh!!!) I'd be interested what happens. Thanks.

May I lay claim to the Tux PC badge. I'll have my burner at ALUG5 so if anybody wants anything copied bring some media. Cheers, BJ ----- Original Message ----- From: MJ Ray <h089@mth.uea.ac.uk> To: <alug@stu.uea.ac.uk> Sent: Thursday, January 20, 2000 11:23 AM Subject: [alug] More Freebies...

Another goodie box has just arrived. This time, I have: TurboLinux Server 4.0 (2CD) TurboLinux Workstation 4.0 (2CD) Slackware Linux 7.0 (2CD) OpenLinux 2.3 Storm Linux 2000 Corel Linux 1.0 RedHat Linux 6.1 (2CD) Mandrake Linux 6.1 Linux Powertools 6.1 Debian GNU/Linux 2.1 (4CD) Tucows Linux Software Archive (4CD) MySQL by Paul DuBois from the New Riders range A small Tux case badge, like you normally see on tower

cases

and another stuffed Tux, this one being kept for use as an ALUG mascot!

Once more, I'm prepared to post any of these out to people as long as they get returned before, or brought to, ALUG5 (case badge non-returnable and book not being posted (although it is up for grabs)). First come, first served.

Distributions marked 2CD consist of a binary and a source CD, 4CD means 2 binaries, 2 sources. I have no idea what forms the Tucows material is in.
