Hello,
I have tried to install a 2.5-9 libc6 on U2, U60 and U80. All
workstations ran with 2.6.20.11 linux kernel (from kernel.org and
without any patch).
With 2.6.20.11 and libc6-2.3, all workstations ran without any trouble.
When I have changed libc, I have seen some troubles:
several daemons that use threads randomly enter in sleep mode and don't
wake up anymore (bind, portmap, clamd, milter-greylist, mimdefang...). I
have tried to build a 2.6.21.5 and I see the same bug. This morning, I
have built a 2.6.22-rc7 but this kernel breaks my nis server and doesn't
fix initial bug.
This bug with threads support affects all my U60 and U80, but I never
see the same thing on my U2. All workstations have more than 2
processors and run SMP-kernel. All i386 and amd64 that run same versions
of daemons/kernel are ot affected.
Regards,
JKB
