Grennan" To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: Evolution/0.99.2 (Preview Release) Date: 28 Nov 2001 00:19:03 -0600 Message-Id: <1006928344.2613.2.camel@cygnusx-1.okcforum.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Well I tried your patch Andrew. It seemed to have absolutely no effect on my problem. I used the am-response.patch someone posted the url to eariler in the first thread, which was just a file of your patch. I really suggest you try a mozilla source rpm. Not only does it do the unarchiving, but also patches and rm -rf. I often see a second pause during the patching after the unarchving. I use rpm --rebuild mozilla-2001112602_trunk-0_rh7.src.rpm I also tried Redhat's latest rawhide kernel, 2.4.16-0.1 and it had to had time same problem. So it isn't fixed by one of their patchs. It is most likely just a difference between Linus's 2.4.9 and 2.4.16.
