PATCH 1/1 ptrace fix, x11 fb update, minor stuff.

Hi,

Just uploaded a updated batch of uml patches to
http://www.suse.de/~kraxel/uml/patches/2.6.9/

Changes from -rc2 patchset:

* Dropped lots of patches because they are merged mainline now. Nice work guys!
* uml-ptrace: new, fixes the ptrace issue (skas-hangs-on-exit).
* uml-x11-fb: updated, should be fully functional now, including mmap support.
* other patches: some rediffs, no major stuff.

X11 doesn't run yet, the X-Server wants IOPL access for some obscure reason, it shouldn't need that when running on top of a framebuffer device. Anyone has an idea on that?

Nice! I guess I should give it a try again :-)

Ugh, that's probably a hardcoded dependency on __i386__ somewhere...

Try the good old XF86_FBDev from XFree86 3.x? :-)

The google hits I had on that suggest that as well :-/

I would, but don't have a copy any more. Ha, that was fun, first days of vesafb, my good old machine being busy for many hours building xfree86, and the X-Servers name was XF68_FBDev ;)

Debian still has it: pool/main/x/xfree86v3/xserver-fbdev_3.3.6-44_i386.deb
