Hi there,

I am a poor guy having only a LC040. Can someone please give me a more
in-depth explanation
for the frequent seg. faults occuring in a LC040 environment? They are a
bit anoying ;-) I'd love
to have a working  unix on my box ...

Thanks in advance,

Ivo

hmmmm...does this machine have an 'LC040, or is it a full '040 processor?
if the former, there is a known bug that is likely to cause this problem.
if the latter, well, then something else is wrong...
later.
