- We have compiled the X11R5 PL16 plus patches to get X386 1.2E.
- The system was built on a SVR4 (Consensys) with sdbm library.
-
- Everything compiled and installed straight. The system starts
- (using mwm an a couple of xterms etc) but after a while the
- server dumps core. It appears to happen when one moves the mouse
- but I'm not sure that is the reason.
-
- Trying to build the server with -g option gives the following when
- linking error message:
-
- ld: X386: libelf error: Memory error: output file space elf_update:
-
- Looking at the core file (without symbol info) with sdb gives:
-
- Warning: no -g information in /usr/X386/bin/X386
- 0x800149ac (_kill+12:) jb +0x00006e12 <8001b7c4> [ _cerror ]

- (This probably doesn`t say anything but who knows...)
-
- The problem occurs both with SAS 1.25 and the Consensys tty/mouse
- driver. The Consensys stock X386 does not have this problem.
-
- Is there possibly anyone that has had similar problems or anyone
- that can tell me how one can solve the -g linking problem.
-
- Many thaks in advance,
