In my attempts to get VRwave (the VRML-97 all java browser for Linux),
I'm ktracing the exec of the programs.

I'm not quite sure what to look for, and its a 3mb file. I apologize if
this is more than anyone wanted to know :)

Here's what happens;

I looked through the ktrace output, and am running across a couple
SIG exceptions;

  5247 java     CALL  sigprocmask(0,0,0x494aaf84)
  5247 java     RET   sigprocmask 0
  5247 java     CALL  sigprocmask(0,0,0x4950df84)
  5247 java     RET   sigprocmask 0
  5247 java     CALL  pause
  5247 java     PSIG  SIGIO caught handler=0x481c5c44 mask=0x0 code=0x0
  5247 java     RET   pause -1 errno -4 Unknown error: 4294967292


And LOT more with the same handler= `code`

Then, a LOT of SIGALRM all through the trace...is this normal?

  5247 java     CALL  open(0xefbfc99c,0,0)
  5247 java    NAMI  "/emul/linux/usr/local/jdk/lib/i18n.jar/sun/awt/motif/Input

Also,

This program works very well under Linux, and I've got all the linux libs
installed (from the working machine), and the MESA libraries installed
and working too.

Ideas?

        Thanx a million,
