- Hello there!
-
- I am using Linux 0.98pl3 w/TCP/IP compiled in on a 386/25
- with 8 megs of RAM. For the last few days i've been
- trying to get LPmud 3.1.2 to work, but to no avail.
-
- I've gotten it compiled, and it runs and all, but
- if I log onto the MUD, it crashes usually in about
- 10 minutes.
-
- I usually get the message:
- dev_rint: dropping packets due to lack of memory
- and then I get the message:
- accept: out of memory
-
- and an IOT trap/Abort (core dumped).
-
- However, when this happens I usually still have at
- least 5 megs left! I thought it might have been
- a problem with smalloc.c, so I tried gmalloc.c,
- but I had the same problem.
-
- I've tried linking with the -static option on gcc,
- because someone previously had mentioned that
- if you linked dynamically, there would be problems
- with smalloc, but it didn't help either.
-
- Can someone PLEASE give me some advice? I
- am quite stuck.
-
- Thanks a lot.
