Hopefully, one of you mgr guru's out there will be able to help on
this:
I installed the vidpal mod (very easy hack, BTW), and got the mgr cpio
from OSU-CIS. I have the win-3b1 stuff, so I used the patch for the
pty's. Compiled mgr, everything is fine.
I issue the mgr command, and get the nifty startrek copyright screen,
which instructs me to press a key, but refuses to do anything when I
do press it.
I have checked all the obvious stuff - mgr is suid to root, I'm not
loading wind.o (so mgr is launched from the console), pty is before
kbd in /etc/lddrv/drivers, and are the versions that came with mgr.
It seems the problem is in select () - it appears to be returning
EFAULT. I'll keep poking at it, but if anyone has any ideas or
suggestions, I'll be interested in hearing them.
Thanks,
sdb
