| |
The changes in include/linux/resource.h of the rlimit struct seem to cause some strange problems with various programs. ulimit under bash shows the limit on cpu time to be -1; similar results occur with limit under tcsh and gnome-pty-helper's sanity checks receive similar results.
Although the programs could probably all be fixed with source-level changes, is there a way around it other than recompiling the apps? It wouldn't be a good thing to have to have all users recompile all of their apps which check limits when 2.4 comes out :)
