Thanks for the response! I have indeed applied all of the errata: lars@xxxx: ~ % rpm -qa | grep glibc glibc-common-2.3.2-27.9 glibc-kernheaders-2.4-8.10 glibc-2.3.2-27.9 glibc-devel-2.3.2-27.9 I did find out about the 'nosysinfo' kernel flag, and booting with it makes Maya work happily. (NetBackup still complains, which I expected.) I do hope another fix can be found, since nosysinfo removes the benefit of the new threading system from the whole OS, not just Maya. cheers, lars >From Peter Bowen <pzb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, Tue, May 06, 2003 at 02:56:16PM -0400: > On Tue, 2003-05-06 at 14:04, Lars Damerow wrote: > > We're testing Red Hat 9 for deployment on our desktop workstations, and have > > bumped against two showstoppers--Alias|Wavefront's Maya and Veritas NetBackup > > don't work.
