[7.7.] Other information
marvin:~ # ifconfig --version
net-tools 1.57
ifconfig 1.40 (2000-05-21)
My gcc is still version 2.95.2 instead of 2.95.3 as described in
Changes, but there were no compilation problems. The system is working
okay, but I don't know, what the error wants to say. As of signal(7),
signal 17 means SIGCHLD, but what child has died?
TIA,
Manfred
