I hadn't actually tried the IBM JVM for PPC - the only link I'd seen for
it pointed to some SuSE site. I am, however, running 2.4.17-benh0 on
this iBook, so I guess if you experience is correct, it wouldn't work on
here anyhow. Also, did it come with an OJI Java plugin for use with
Mozilla? (I'd bet not.)

Would you mind giving it a shot? (or someone else?) I want to be sure that it's
not a local Glibc issue or such thing. I also haven't tried a recent benh
kernel..

Works here, but then I've applied a couple patches:
2.4.18-pre9-benh-o1-xfs-lolat-aa ;)

As you mention sched_yield(), the O(1) scheduler patch could make the
difference?

hmm, I tried the O(1) scheduler with your patch and it still doesn't work.

maybe it's lolat? or benh? I'll try that tonight.

but could you do me a favour? can you try out 2.4.18-rc4 vanilla? and confirm
that it doesn't work? that would eliminate the possiblity that it's a userspace
issue (or rather some kind of kernel-userspace interaction problem)

Why don't you just try Debian instead? ;)

Seriously, I can't test vanilla because my filesystems are all XFS. :)
And it's not that I have too much time, if you know what I mean... I
hope you understand and that your own testing will give some results.

and you're sure your trying the IBM-jdk right? could be that you have the
blackdown JDK installed as well and it comes first in your PATH or something?

I do have the Blackdown 1.1 and 1.3 JDKs installed as well, but I used
the absolute path to the IBM java executable for testing. Coult it still
have picked up some wrong libraries or something?
