2.6.x kernel
 

Anyone gotten sharemem working properly on the new 2.6 kernels ?

I keep getting segfaults....

No. I had tons of problems with 2.6 compilations...not just EQEmu either. I went back to 2.4.

I think the way the shm functions work must have changed, i'm getting address out of bounds errors now in MMF:Open...

Yeah, sharemem keeps dying on me too on 2.6.3 and 2.6.3-mm3. I just went back to 2.4.25, and recompiled and it's working fine.

Any plans on fixing ShareMem to work with 2.6.x?

bump, anybody?

bug in the 2.6 kernel per the linux kernel threads... im expecting they'll fix it soon.. Theres a kernel patch available, but i'd rather wait till they rolled it in.

Do you have a link to the patch, Trump? If you don't have it handy I'm sure I can find it so don't worry about it. Just wondered if you could save me some time. ;)

That's not the same error as the one caused by the 2.6 kernel.

I could be wrong, but that looks like a problem with permissions on libEMuShareMem.so. Make sure it's chmod +x.
