I posted a patch for 3.4-STABLE !several weeks ago which fixes this. I'm not sure how it would work on !3.3. ! !---- !John Rochester Java Developer, e-Net Software, Bath, UK !john.rochester@enetgroup.co.uk jr@cs.mun.ca Thanks for this information. I applied the patch to my 3.3-R /usr/src/sys, compiled the new linux.ko module, and it installed without complaint. And the good news is, the Linux JDK1.2pre-v2 here reads input now.
