Does that work? Unforunatly, no. I made a complete rebuild with libtermcap replaced by libxcurses, but the resulting binary still crashes like before. > If it works in batch mode, it can't be a gross failure of unexec.

I'd like to debug this issue, but to be true, I don't know how to tackle this -- especially given the fact that each rebuild takes hours and the gdb output seems quite uninformative. (maybe my gdb build is buggy too?!) Any hints on how to proceed are highly welcome. cheers sascha -- Sascha Wilde "Liebet eure Feinde, vielleicht schadet das ihrem Ruf" (Stanislaw Jerzy Lec)
