[Plex86-devel] X uses 95-98 cpu after plex86 started ... |

First off thanks to all who have contributed to this project,
particulary Kevin Lawton for starting it, as one of the Hobbits said :
It's the job that never gets started as takes longest to finish.
I've only just started following this so I don't know all the other names
involved, but thanks to Eric Laberge for fixing one problem I've had so
far.
Unfortunately, everytime I run plex86 my RH system grinds to a halt:
( Kernel 2.2.5-15 ).
Running top gives X at 95-99 % cpu.(!!!)
Before I realised the X problem I used strace and then gdb to see if I could
trace it down, but now it occurs to me I should probably ask if this is
something simple and obvious that I am overlooking.
I noticed that after trying to run plex nothing else would run, xterm, ,
ddd, anything.
I straced ddd and plex and I noticed a common error 'resource temporarily
unavailable'.
This was always after a read (0x.......).
I can't give you the exact text because running plex now will kill my X
session.
I mention this in the hope it will ring a bell with someone, but if not
I will gather as much info as I can and forward it on.
It would be nice to fix this myself, but I'm new to this game, and would
appreciate any help,
Thanks,
Brendan Bradley.
