[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ /usr/sbin/dictd -d nofork :I: 2535 starting dictd 1.8.0/rf on Linux 2.4.19-xfs Tue Dec 3 23:43:09 2002 dictd (dict_index_open): Cannot mmap index file "/dev/null(dict_index_open) Cannot mmap index file "/dev/nulldict_index_open: No such device (dict_index_open) dict_index_open: No such device I have not experienced any problems with this version in woody, sarge or sid, using a 2.4.18 kernel, and I have not received any other similar bug reports. The reporter is running a 2.4.19 kernel with the XFS patch and SMP support. Are there any known issues with the XFS patch and SMP support that could contribute to this problem? Is anyone running dictd with a 2.4.19 kernel with the XFS patch and SMP support? Regards, Bob -- _ |_) _ |_ Robert D. Hilliard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> |_) (_) |_) 1294 S.W.
