When glic is compiled with --enable-kernels=2.4.0, it enables a feature |
| 2 |
called floating stacks to improve performance. Frankly I do not know what |
| 3 |
floating stacks are, and would not really have cared, but for the fact that |
| 4 |
IBM's jdk did not work on rc5 because it makes some wrong assumptions about |
| 5 |
something related to the floating stacks. Sun's jdk1.3.1 is supposed to have |
| 6 |
fixed this, but I really want to use IBM's JDK. I think this will be fixed |
| 7 |
in the next few releases of the JDK, but in the mean time this does not |
| 8 |
allow me to use gentoo as my primary desktop. |

I tried slackware-current from a week ago (Essentially Slackware-8.0 which |
| 12 |
was released a couple of days ago) and everython ran smoothly, with nary a |
| 13 |
hiccup. |

The following url has some more stuff. (might need an account with Sun's |

developer connection) |
